A system is described for the examination of phototropism in the epicotyl of a dicot seedling, mung bean (Phaseolus aureus Roxb.), under conditions approximating nature, including the use of intact, nonetiolated plants exposed to elevated, continuous, white, unilateral light. It is found that in this system perception of the phototropic stimulus by the leaves alone cannot account for the curvature, and that exposure of the stem is also necessary. The phototropic response was found to be strongly altered in nonintact plants. Hypobaric treatment indicates that ethylene may participate in phototropism, possibly by acting as an inhibitor of auxin transport.
