Abstract
Messenger RNAs encoded by other maize P450 clones (CYP71C1, CYP51, CYP73A7, CYP73A6, CYP92A1, CYP95A1, and the ESTs 6c06b11 and 7c02c12) were also characterized with regard to their induction response to naphthalic anhydride and triasulfuron treatment. In addition, maize seedlings were also subjected to the following treatments: phenobarbital, UV-C light, wounding, and the maize bacterial pathogens Erwinia stuartii and Acidovorax avenae. The induction response of each P450 was characterized in response to these treatments. The particular effects of each treatment varied with each P450 tested. In some cases there was an induction of the P450 mRNA, in some cases there was no effect, and in others the mRNA levels were repressed.
