A lateral bud growth inhibitor was isolated from etiolated pea seedlings and identified as indole-3-aldehyde. The indole-3-aldehyde content was significantly higher in the diffusates from explants with apical bud and indole-3-acetic acid treated decapitated explants, in which apical dominance is maintained, than in those from decapitated ones releasing apical dominance. When the indole-3-aldehyde was applied to the cut surface of etiolated decapitated plants or directly to the lateral buds, it inhibited outgrowth of the latter. These results suggest that indole-3-aldehyde plays an important role as a lateral bud growth inhibitor in apical dominance of pea seedlings.
