| Abstract | Fruit-set, defined as the activation of a developmental program which converts the ovary into a developing fruit, depends on the crosstalk among plant hormones. Here we show that in pollinated ovaries fruit-set is associated with an increase in indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) content and high transcript levels of ToFZY, a gene involved in the tryptophan-dependent auxin biosynthesis pathway. In unpollinated ovaries developed parthenocarpically in response to the synthetic auxin chlorophenoxyacetic acid (4-CPA), ToFZY mRNA levels and IAA content slightly increase. The most likely sequence of events after fertilization involves auxin-mediated activation of gibberellin (GA) synthesis. Fertilization events not only strongly increase SlGA20ox1 and SlGA20ox3 message levels but also increase SlGA2ox2, SlGA2ox4, and SlGA2ox5 mRNA levels, suggesting a concerted regulation to modulate the level of bioactive GAs, GA1 and GA3. 4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid was found to mimic the fertilization events in the stimulation of SlGA20ox1 and SlGA20ox3 mRNA levels, which were also enhanced and increased earlier, but in contrast with pollinated ovaries, SlGA2ox2, SlGA2ox4, and SlGA2ox5 mRNA levels were repressed leading to higher levels of bioactive GAs. We have also analyzed the content of abscisic acid (ABA) and its metabolites dihydrophaseic acid, phaseic acid, and ABA-glucosyl ester and the level of cytokinins (CKs) (free bases and their corresponding ribosides and ribotides) in pollinated and auxin-treated tomato fruits. We show that ABA levels decrease whereas the levels of free CKs increase immediately after pollination or auxin treatment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
