Relationships between endogenous phenolic compounds of rhododendron tissues and organs and cold hardiness development

Creator:

Chalker-Scott, Linda

Abstract:

The leaching of water soluble phenolic compounds from cold stressed Rhododendron leaves was found to be a reliable indicator of tissue damage. In sublethally stressed leaf tissues, more and novel phenolic compounds appeared and were hypothesized to be precursors of cell wall components such as lignin and suberin. Subsequent radiolabeling...
