Transgenic plants overexpressing AXR3/IAA17 were impaired in root growth. Specifically, they exhibited severe defects in lateral root and root hair development similar to the root phenotypes of epi-brassinolide (epiBL)-treated wild-type plants. Here, we investigated the involvement of AXR3/IAA17 gene expression in brassinosteroid (BR)-regulated root development. Exogenous epiBL application significantly induced expression of the AXR3/IAA17 gene as well as several Aux/IAA genes, such as AXR2/IAA7, SLR/IAA14, and IAA28. We analyzed the transcription levels of several Aux/IAA genes related to root development in the BR signaling mutant bri1 and the BR biosynthesis mutant det2. AXR3/IAA17 gene expression was significantly decreased in bri1 plants. In det2 plants, expression of AXR3/IAA17 slightly decreased. This in turn suggests that epiBL induced these Aux/IAA genes, and that these induced gene products might function as factors in root development. Furthermore, AXR3/IAA17 might be involved in the BR signaling pathway, suggesting an intersection node of BR-auxin signaling in root development.
