Aha. Farooqi et al., RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GIBBERELLIN AND CYTOKININ ACTIVITY AND FLOWERINGIN ROSA-DAMASCENA MILL, Plant growth regulation, 14(2), 1994, pp. 109-113
Kinetin at 10 mg l(-1) increased the number of flowers produced on Ros
a damascena plants while GA(3) inhibited flowering. In the leaves of n
on-flowering plants GA-like activity was high while specific cytokinin
activity (fraction-II)was significantly higher in flowering plants. A
novel compound 10- methyldihydrozeatin riboside and isopentenyl-adeni
ne were identified from TLC fraction-II while TLC fraction-I yielded z
eatin and 2-hydroxy-6-methylaminopurine.
