  • Identification of cytokinin reductase in Phaseolus embryos

    Creator:
    Martin, Ruth C.
    Abstract:
    A critical balance of hormones is necessary for normal plant development. Therefore, precise mechanisms must exist to maintain proper levels of cytokinins, a group of hormones regulating cell division and differentiation. Structural modifications of the naturally occurring cytokinin, zeatin; including the oxidation, O-glycosylation and reduction of the N⁶-side chain; may...

  • Isozyme banding patterns and embryo development in interspecific crosses of Phaseolus

    Creator:
    Guo, Mei
    Abstract:
    Interspecific hybridization between Phaseolus vulgaris and P. coccineus results in the formation of either mature F₁ seeds or abnormal embryos, depending on the direction of the cross. However, normal as well as abnormal embryos occur in the reciprocal F₂ populations. The exact cause of abnormal embryo development is unknown. To...
