Approach grafts were made between the cut surfaces of mesocotyls from normal and dwarf seedlings ofZea maysL. (maize). The dwarfs were the non-allelic single gene gibberellin mutants, dwarf1and dwarf5. The graft combinations were normal-normal, normal-dwarf1, normal-dwarf5, dwarfi-dwarf1, dwarf5-dwarf5, and dwarf1-dwarf5. The grafts were used to demonstrate the movement of gibberellin-like substances across the union. GA3, added to one member of the graft, resulted in leaf-sheath elongation to both members. Gibberellin-like elongation was observed in the dwarf1and dwarf5members of normal-dwarf1and normal-dwarf5grafts. Also, in some cases, elongation was observed in the dwarf1and dwarf5members of dwarf1-dwarf5grafts, especially in the dwarf5members. The results are discussed in terms of: the gibberellin biosynthetic pathway in maize, the control of this pathway by the d5and d1mutant genes, and the movement of gibberellin-like substances in the plant. Anatomical observation of grafted seedlings after the resonse was observed shows that callus cells developed and bridged across the interface of the autografts. There was also evidence for vascular differentiation across the graft union.
