A new multiple hanging-drop assay was tested with a growth inhibitor, cycloheximide, and a growth-promoter, fusicoccin. This assay was used to examine the growth-response of pollen-tubes of P. avium to brassinolide, a naturally occurring promoter of plant growth. This response is compared with that of IAA, GA, and kinetin. Pollen tubes responded to brassinolide and fusicoccin at 1 nM and above, a concentration 1 order of magnitude lower than that for indol-3-ylacetic acid and gibberellic acid. Kinetin did not stimulate growth of the pollen tubes.
