| Abstract | To examine the possible relationship between the activity of 1-aminocyclopropane carboxylic acid synthase (ACS; EC 4.4.1.14) and growth of mustard (Brassica juncea L.), ACS activity, ethylene and plant growth were studied in the presence of ACS activity modulators in no-defoliation and defoliated plants. Growth of plants was greatest when subjected to defoliation of 50% lower leaves in the plant axis compared to defoliation of 25% lower leaves or no-defoliation. The activity of ACS in no-defoliation and defoliated plants was correlative with growth of plants. ACS activity and ethylene evolution in no-defoliation plants treated with 10 μM indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and defoliated plants treated with water were equal and resulted in maximum plant growth. On the contrary, the application of 10 μM IAA on defoliated plants resulted in the increase in ACS activity and ethylene evolution to an extent that inhibited the growth. The application of 100 μM IAA on no-defoliation and defoliated plants increased ACS activity and ethylene evolution maximally and proved inhibitory for the plant growth. The association of ACS activity, ethylene evolution and growth of plants was further substantiated with the use of 50 μM aminoethoxyvinyl glycine (AVG) applied alone or in combination with 10 or 100 μM IAA. The application of AVG resulted in the inhibition of ACS activity and the growth of no-defoliation or defoliated plants. The results indicate that there exists a correlation between ACS activity, ethylene and the growth of mustard plants. |

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.
