no mention of regulation of phototropism

Auxins regulate phototropism and there is no clear and specific mention of this in the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kerander (talk • contribs) 03:55, 24 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank You Kerander, thank You for your observation and feedback. I am thankfull for all the feedback I can get, that can help me to see the article through different eyes and help me to improve it.

Phototropism is indeed important concept within auxin topic and generally essential process, which relies entirelly on redistribution of auxin within the stem, leaf stalk or other organs. For auxin, it is actually quite emblematic, because through study of phototropism auxin was actually discovered.

So in sum, it trully belongs to the article.

But my question is, isn't it already there?, It is there on two places already (#here and #here) So that the point You have is rather: that it is there not prominent enough. - As you say - clear and specific mentioning of it. OK, that is what I take.

So in sum, it trully belongs to the article, it is already there, but it might be not that prominent is it ought be.

Well, then let's find where it would fit nicely. The article is already geting long and I try, in order to let it be legible, intelligible and digestible - to keep all examples on rather minimal levels only, ... just enaugh details for ilustrational purposes - to describe importance and nature of auxin. Phototropism is crucial process. But there is really lot of crucial and vital plant processes governed by auxin. (Actually everythink and anythink vital has somethink with auxin in plant body)

I will try to rethink it a bit. But would you mind to help me, if you have an idea? Where do you think, it would fit? To which chapter? And how? Reo ⁺ 20:27, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

reference no 9 is laden with speculative advertising, and difficult (impossible?) to find the relevant information (went cell elongation info)

No biosynthesis?

There is really no text on auxin biosynthesis? Even slightest mention? HlTo CZ (talk) 15:29, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
