Involvement of cytokinins in the germination of chick-pea seeds
Eight cytokinins detected in germinated chick-pea ( Cicer arietinum L. var. Castellana) seeds were first present in the embryonic axes but appeared in...

Zeatin-induced shoot regeneration from immature chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) cotyledons
For the purpose of develo** an in vitro regeneration system for chickpea ( Cicer arietinum L.), an important food legume, immature cotyledons...

An in vitro technique for the production de novo of multiple shoots in cotyledon explants of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)
A technique is described for the production de novo of cucumber ( Cucumis sativus L.) shoots in the presence of cytokinin using cotyledon explants....

In vitro flowering and pod formation from cotyledons of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.)
The response of groundnut cotyledons to the presence of various growth regulators in concentrations from 0.1 to 5 mg/l has been studied in detail...

Control of the Mobilization of Stored Reserves
The majority of work on the control of mobilization of stored reserves has been carried out on cereal grains, although in recent years there has been...

Growth
In a series of refreshingly provocative articles TREWAVAS (1981, 1982 and references cited therein; see also Progr. Bot. 44, 189) has challenged the...

Control by External and Internal Factors Over the Mobilization of Reserve Carbohydrates in Higher Plants
In this chapter we shall review recent advances in our understanding of how higher plants regulate the mobilization of stored polysaccharides and...
-
Protein and Nucleic Acid Synthesis During Seed Germination and Early Seedling Growth
Our understanding of the mechanism of protein synthesis in plants has resulted largely from studies on in vitro systems prepared from dry, quiescent...

A structural study of germination in celery (Apium graveolens L.) seed with emphasis on endosperm breakdown
Germination of celery seed occurred after 6 d of imbibition in light. During this time the embryo enlarged at the expense of the adjacent endosperm...
-
Developmental Physiology
When we survey the recent literature it becomes apparent that seed formation, germination, and development of the young growing seedling are major...

Control Processes in the Mobilization of Stored Reserves
By far the most work on the control of enzymes responsible for the mobilization of stored reserves has been carried out on cereal grains and some of...

Mobilization of Reserves
In this chapter we shall concentrate on those events taking place after radicle emergence, which are necessary for the maintenance of growth of the...

Natural Growth Regulators
It may be expected that an attack on a plant by a pathogen may alter the normal hormonal balance in the plant and in this way change the growth habit...
