Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Acid-soluble nucleotides in senescing wheat leaves tended to decrease with time, similar to the decline in RNA.
- Observation There was little change in the free nucleotide to RNA nucleotide ratio in senescing leaves.
- Intervention effect Kinetin treatment reduced, but did not prevent, the loss of soluble nucleotides in senescing wheat leaves.
- Observation The greatest nucleotide losses occurred in the nucleoside diphosphates.
- Intervention effect Rust infection increased each of the soluble nucleotides in wheat leaves, even more rapidly than it increased RNA content.
- Observation Uridine and adenosine derivatives were the only nucleotides consistently found.
- Observation Uredospores and rust-infected leaves, unlike uninfected leaves, contained a large amount of a UDP-N-acetylglucosamine complex.
