Applications of BBa_K515010
- The enzymatic reactions of the IAM pathway produce indole-3 acetic acid (IAA) which is an important phytohormone.
- Many Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria produce IAA
- Analogues of phytohormones like α-Naphthaleneacetic acid are usually found in rooting powders. Therefore, if we were to express IAA in bacteria in a controlled fashion we could increase root growth.
- Increased root growth could help maintain top soil.
- Evidence has shown that using IAA on cotton can increase yields.
