1 One of the first plant species to colonise some habitats is thale cress
(Arabidopsis thaliana).

The plant hormone IAA (auxin) is produced in the growing tips of plants such as
thale cress.

, One type of receptor for IAA is coded for by the tir1 gene.

Scientists have investigated the effect of IAA on the growth of lateral roots in
thale cress.
Plants homozygous for a normal tir1 gene and plants homozygous for a mutation
in the tir1 gene were used in this investigation.

The plants were treated with different concentrations of IAA.
The mean number of lateral roots produced per mm of main root was recorded.

The graph shows the results of this investigation.
