Abstract
Gibberellin A(8) (GA(8)), GA(17), GA(29), GA(44), and GA(53) were iden tified from the shoots of Phyllostachys edulis, together with previous ly identified GA(1), GA(19), and GA(20), and the occurrence of a 2 bet a-hydroxy-GA(53)-like compound was suggested. An experiment on shoots of the bamboo species confirmed the metabolism from GA(12)-aldehyde to GA(12) and GA(53) in P. bambusoides, and from GA(12)-aldehyde to GA(1 2) and GA(12) to GA(53) in Sasa kurilensis. These findings strongly su ggest the participation of the early-13-hydroxylation pathway for gibb erellin biosynthesis in the shoots of Bambusoideae.
