I removed this attribution from the article body:

My name is Paul Pruitt. I received a BA from Swarthmore College in 1984, where I studied under Dr. Mark Jacobs. My bachelor's thesis was an examination of all aspects of plant senescence, including the role of hormones. I also received an MA from the University of Pennsylvania in 1986, where I studied plants under Scott Poethig among others. I have been studying the plant physiological hormone literature and thinking about plant hormones for 20 years. I'm currently an unemployed but experienced IT support analyst who has his own small file recovery and virtual Helpdesk business. The Website can be seen here. If you have any questions or comments, send them to s.socrtwo@verizon.com. --Socrtwo 02:05, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)


This is socrtwo again. You know we could use some scientist editing of the entries.

Hi folks, here's a confession, I'm an arch speculator. The information I wrote in the article, (which I mostly wrote) is speculation albeit simple speculation based on experimental evidence.

I wrote most of the bullets for the different plant hormones too although they are clear experimental findings. I did not make up the information except where specified. I will try to find the specific references for each of the findings and reference it for each plant hormone.

According to the rules of this Wiki, speculation does not belong here. Please correct the article, and I will relegate my thoughts to a more appropriate forum. Let's just say it's a placeholder for now.--socrtwo 01:06, Mar 11, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Why plural

Shouldn't this page at Plant hormone? ✑whkoh | ✖ 01:07, Oct 23, 2004 (UTC)

Yes. apparently somebody connected the two, because they lead to the same place.--socrtwo 00:51, Mar 11, 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Why I Removed the Hormone Theory Section

This article should properly contain a history of plant hormones and currently accepted scientific theory not my speculations even if I think they are right. An encyclopedia is a place for knowledge not speculation.--socrtwo 03:41, August 11, 2005 (UTC)


[edit] Phytochrome

Is phytochrome legitimately considered a plant hormone, and if not, why not?

Jeeb 21:57, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

Phytochrome is just an enzyme,... it is not transported through the body of the plant and so there is can't be any signal function related to that movement, so it's function is not related with coordination of different parts of the plant body, so it is not hormone. It is working locally in chloroplast membrane. Reo ON | +++ 18:03, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

In fact, phytochrome is actually a pigment. It can be in an active (Pfr) stage or an inactive (Pr) stage. It activates via red light and is not produced in response to any situation.

[edit] Move to Plant growth regulators

Why? It is more correct, cus phytohormones are just chemical substances naturally occuring in plants. On the other hand PGRs are both phytohormones and other chemical (synthetical) substances used in labs.--Juan de Vojníkov 10:17, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Expansion

Finally the article was rescued of its stubness. Nice work. I think that this kind of article could benefit from a summarising table, as was done at the end of the Hebrew article. Aside from the chemical structures it lists the biosynthetic progenitors of each hormone (tryptophan and methionine for auxin and ethylene, for example) and the positive and negative effect in summary. Images in such a long article would also be nice. I'd love to to all this myself if the expansion is done. Pixie 22:58, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

I have a lot more to add, but would rather build around what you have suggested (I am not competent enough to do this my self though)- so if you want to take over for now that would be great. I can add here and there. My back ground in this field is limited to PGRs used in tissue culture 20 years ago and many of those are synthetic, so will work on a section for PGRs used in tissue culture after the main parts are done. I would also be greatfull for a through editing and general clean-up (another area I am not competent in)Hardyplants 23:09, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Needs edited for:

... grammar, spelling, run-on sentences, etc.

I don't have the time to do it right. Native English speaker, please, with scientific background? Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.18.161.69 (talk) 22:47, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
