Previous work indicated that accumulation of abscisic acid (ABA) acts differentially to maintain elongation of the primary root and inhibit elongation of the mesocotyl of maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings at low water potentials ([psi]w). Subsequent results indicated specific locations in the elongation zones where elongation is maintained, inhibited, or unaffected by endogenous ABA at low [psi]w. This information was utilized in this study to identify in vitro translation products of RNA associated with the maintenance or inhibition of elongation in the primary root and mesocotyl, respectively, by endogenous ABA at low [psi]w. The results distinguished products associated specifically with the elongation responses from those nonspecifically associated with ABA accumulation or low [psi]w, as well as normal cell development and maturation. In the primary root, the maintenance of elongation at low [psi]w by ABA was associated with the maintenance of expression of three products that were also expressed during elongation at high [psi]w, the expression of a novel product, and the suppression of two products. In the mesocotyl, the inhibition of elongation by ABA after transplanting to low [psi]w was associated with the induction of a novel translation product. However, the induction of this product, as well as accumulation of ABA and inhibition of elongation, occurred without a decline in tissue water content. The results demonstrate the necessity of examining the association of gene expression with elongation responses to low [psi]w with a high degree of spatial resolution.
