"Modern corn varieties have been selected for their ability to maintain productivity in dense plantings. We have tested the possibility that the physiological consequence of the selection of the modern hybrid, 3394, for increased crop yield includes changes in responsiveness to auxin and light. Etiolated seedlings in the modern line are shorter than in an older hybrid, 307, since they produce shorter coleoptile, mesocotyl, and leaves (blade as well as sheath). Etiolated 3394 seedlings as well as isolatedmesocotyl and sheath segments were less responsive to auxin and an inhibitor of polar auxin transport, NPA. Reduced response of 3394 to auxin was associated with less reduction of elongation growth by light (W, R, FR, B) than in 307, whereas activity of polar auxin transport (PAT) and its reduction by R or FR were similar in both genotypes. NPA reduced PAT in etiolated 3394 seedlings much less than in 307. A characteristic feature of 3394 plants is more erect leaves. In both hybrids, light (W, R, B) in"@en .
