چکیده

Kinetin alleviates cycloheximide inhibition and oxygen alleviates chloramphenicol inibition of germination of lettuce seeds (Lactuca sativa L. cv Grand Rapids). The effect is not due to increased but rather a substitution for protein synthesis. A cytokinin and energy supply appear prime requirements for germination.

Kinetin Enhanced 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylic Acid Utilization during Alleviation of High Temperatures Stress in Lettuce Seeds.

The thermoinhibition at 35 and 32 degrees C of pregermination ethylene production and germination in lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. cv Mesa 659) seeds was synergistically or additively alleviated by 0.05 millimolar kinetin (KIN) and 10 millimolar 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC). The synergistic effect of KIN + ACC on ethylene production and germination at 35 degrees C was inhibited by C...

Interaction between Kinetin and Light on Germination of Grand Rapids Lettuce Seeds.

At 260 Grand Rapids lettuce seeds require an exposure to white or red (6500A-6800A) light in order to germinate. This stimulating effect is reversed if this illumination is followed immediately by a brief exposure to far-red light (7000A-7500A). This phenomenon, discovered by Flint and McAllister (4), has been widely studied (3, 8). Many factors, such as lowering the temperature to 160 (1), can...

Stimulation of Lettuce Seed Germination by 6-(Substituted) Purines.

Presoaking several varieties of seed, especially lettuce, in various 6(substituted) aminoand thiopurine solutions has been found to increase their rate of germination (3, 5, 6). Recently it was also reported that these purine derivatives are synergistic with gibberellin in inducing these biological responses whereas gibberellin alone was only moderately active in stimulating germination of Earl...

Inhibition of Gibberellic Acid-induced Germination by Abscisic Acid and Reversal by Cytokinins.

The germinatioil of seed can be controlled by ap)plication of exogenous hormones at physiological concenitrations. It is therefore possible that the n-atural control of germination involves an interplay of hormones, both promoters and inh,,ibitors. WXe have shown that cytokinins overcome the inhibitoryaction of several natural inhibitors in the germination of the photosensitive Grand Rapids let...

Separation of Mechanisms Initiating Cell Division and Cell Expansion in Lettuce Seed Germination.

After imbibition of water by seeds under favorable circumstances, the growth by which the embryo becomes a young seedling occurs by both expansion of cells originally present in the dormant embryo and mitotic divisions resulting in an increase in cell number (15). Germination of lettuce seed has been of special interest to plant physiologists because it can be stimulated by gibberellins, kineti...
