A method using optical microfibers permitted localized exposure of the cap or the elongating part of growing maize (Zea mays L.) roots to white light. When the cap was illuminated, a strong and very rapid inhibition of the elongation rate of the roots was found. When the light microbeam was directed at the elongating region, the roots continued to grow at the same rate as before the illumination.
一种使用光学微纤维的方法可以使正在生长的玉米（Zea mays L.）根的冠部或伸长部分局部暴露在白光下。当冠部被照射时，发现根的伸长率强烈且非常迅速地受到抑制。当光微束指向伸长区时，根继续以照射前的相同速率生长。
