SUMMARY Transport and metabolism of auxin have been studied in explants of Coleus . An ageing period preceding a transport experiment causes a decrease in the amounts of radioactivity transported. A pre‐treatment with auxin during the ageing period maintains the transport on the original level. The formation of various auxin metabolites is affected by the ageing process.
