The effect of exogenous gibberellin and its synthesis inhibitor treatments for morphological and physiological characteristics of Tartary buckwheat.

ABSTRACT: Gibberellin (GA₃) is an important plant hormone involved in many physiological and developmental processes in plants. However, the physiological mechanism of GA₃ on the regulation yield and grain shell thickness of Tartary buckwheat is still unclear. In this study, the thick-shelled cultivar "Jinqiao 2" and thin-shelled cultivar "Miku 18" were used to study the effects of different concentrations (0, 50, and 100 mg L^-1) of exogenous GA₃ and chlorocholine chloride (CCC, GA₃ synthesis inhibitor) on the cellulose content, amylase, and sucrose synthase (SS) activity in grain shell and the yield of Tartary buckwheat. The application of exogenous GA₃ can improve the cellulose content and the activity of amylase and SS in the grain
