This class of compounds, discovered by Fritz Went, is often synthesized in the apical meristem, and they are responsible for differentiation of xylem and phloem and delays in the ripening of fruit.
One step in a synthesis of this class of compounds involves the creation of indolepyruvic acid from tryptophan, and this class of compounds is transported in the parenchyma tissue. They play a key role in the acid growth hypothesis by activating [*] proton pumps. This class of compounds, discovered by Fritz Went, is often synthesized in the apical meristem, and they are responsible for differentiation of xylem and phloem and delays in the ripening of fruit. For 10 points, identify this class of plant hormones, responsible for stimulating stem elongation.
