Abstract
2-(1-Pyrenoyl)benzoic acid is shown to be a highly active inhibitor of auxin transport by its ability to prevent the polar transport of indoleacetic acid in bean petioles. It is comparable in activity to other known auxin transport inhibitors, and also affects apical dominance and the geotropic and phototropic responses.Keywords
