  • Comparative gibberellin relationships in tall and dwarf peas (Pisum sativum L.)

    Creator:
    Anderson, James David
    Abstract:
    Experiments were performed to determine whether a direct correlation exists between the growth rates of tall and dwarf peas grown either in the light or in the dark and endogenous gibberellin (GA) content. Three separate but related experimental approaches were utilized: (1) the determination of possible qualitative and /or quantitative...

  • The biosynthesis and metabolism of (-)-kaurene in cell-free extracts of immature pea seeds

    Creator:
    Coolbaugh, Ronald Charles, 1944-
    Abstract:
    Procedures were developed for assaying the biosynthesis of (-)- kaurene-¹⁴C and other intermediates in gibberellin (GA) synthesis from mevalonic acid-¹⁴C in cell-free enzyme extracts of immature pea (Pisum sativum L. cv. Alaska) seeds. This system was utilized to investigate three aspects of GA biosynthesis: (1) apparent capacities for (-)-kaurene biosynthesis...
