Antiauxin

[valentino <vvallicelli@LIBERO.IT>]

Dear all

I have some question about antiauxins.........
Some Cactaceae species produce endogenous auxin or auxin like growth 
regulator in in vitro culture.
The result is a plentifull callus production whit poor shoots 
proliferation.
I found an article ( REYES et al  - 1995 ) in witch antiauxin counpounds 
 stimulate a more active shoot proliferation and quality in a long term 
TC treatment  of  Aztekium ritterii.
The most active conpound seems   CA   
2-(p-chlorophenoxy)-2-methylpropionic acid and (but less effective) TIBA 
 2,3,5,triidrobenzoic acid    and    MH  ( maleic hydrazide.)

I know very few about antiaxins in TC of cacti and will be glade to 
learn more on the practical use of this conpounds in plant tissue 
culture in general. Can you share some knowledge about antiaxins ?

many thanks
