Molecular and Biochemical Steps in Synthesis of Auxin in Plant
2,4,5-Trichlorophenoxyacetic acid
tryptophan (Trp)-independent
Trp-independent IAA biosynthesis,indole-3-
glycerol phosphate or indole is the likely
precursor
Trp dependent pathways

Mechanisms:
Decarboxylation
Indole-3-acetaldoxime
Indole-3-pyruvic acid Tryptamine
Oxidation and
Deamination
Decarboxylation Indole-3-acetonitrile
Indole -3-acetaldehyde
Oxidation
IAA
IPA Pathway (Indol -3- pyruvic acid)
IAN and other components of the IAN pathway have been found primarily
in the Brassicacae; therefore, this pathway has not been considered to be
of general importance.
