L. Decooman et al., THE POSSIBLE ROLE OF PHENOLICS IN INCOMPATIBILITY EXPRESSION IN EUCALYPTUS-GUNNII MICROGRAFTS, Phytochemical analysis, 7(2), 1996, pp. 92-96
As a result of incompatibility, Eucalyptus gunnii showed in the graft
area of in vitro micrografts a typical accumulation of gallic, ellagic
, gentisic and p-coumaric acid: (+)-catechin also increased in concent
ration, In compatible grafts, a lower concentration of phenolics accum
ulated, The possible role of both specific types of phenolic accumulat
ion and the higher activities of soluble peroxidases and polyphenol ox
idase in incompatible grafts as opposed to compatible ones is discusse
