For example, excised tobacco leaf tissues grew more rapidly incubated in auxin over a 20 hour period resulting in epinastic (downward) curvature (2, 3) and one-time application of auxins to expanding common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) leaves produced transient (multi-hour) hyponasty (upward curvature) due to increased abaxial (underside) cell expansion (3).
