OF TIBA Fig. 72. Elfects of TIBA (2,3,5-tiiiodobenzoic acid) upon auxin-induced curvature in the Avena test. A: the inhibition of Avena curvature by high concentrations of TIBA. The indoleacetic acid concentration was held constant at (from Galston, 1947); B: increases in auxin-induced curvature by applying low concentra- tions of TIBA. The indoleacetic acid concentration was held constant at (from Thimann and Bonner, 1948)..
