Protocol to Treat Seedlings with Brassinazole and Measure Hypocotyl Length in Arabidopsis thaliana
2015

The plant hormones brassinosteroids (BR) promote hypocotyl elongation of Arabidopsis thaliana (A. thaliana) seedlings both under light and dark (etiolated) conditions. A common assay to determine if a mutant or transgenic line is affected in BR biosynthesis or response is a sensitivity assay to brassinazole (BRZ), an inhibitor of P450 cytochromes specific to BR biosynthesis. Here we provide a protocol to compare BRZ sensitivity of different A. thaliana genotypes in terms of hypocotyl elongation (Bernardo-García et al., 2014).
