K. Paasch et al., CHANGES IN THE CONCENTRATION OF SOME PHYTOHORMONES IN CULTURED ROOT EXPLANTS AND IN INTACT CARROT PLANTS (DAUCUS-CAROTA L.) DURING THE DAY, Journal of Applied Botany-Angewandte Botanik, 71(3-4), 1997, pp. 85-89
In carrot plants (Daucus carota L.) the concentration of six cytokinin
s (isopentenyladenine, isopentenyladenosine, zeatin, zeatinriboside, d
ihydrozeatin, dihydrozeatinriboside) and of IAA indicate characteristi
c changes during a 24h day at both the natural and a constant environm
ent. Such variations in phytohormone concentrations were also observed
in cultured carrot root explants.
