Abstract:
The effect of ethylene on the induction of alcohol dehydrogenase-2 in seedling roots of maize is reported. Allele-specific differences are observed in the response to the hormone. Hormonal treatment acts to eliminate the difference in gene expression that is characteristic of the alleles in untreated roots.
