Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Shoot multiplication was about twice as high in light as darkness.
- Intervention effect Light grown explants had higher root regeneration than dark grown explants.
- Intervention effect Cyanogenic potential was generally higher in light than darkness.
- Observation Linamarin concentration was highest in light regenerated shoots.
- Observation Lotaustralin concentration was highest in light regenerated shoots.
- Observation Cyanogenic compounds in shoots were twice the root amount.
- Observation Cyanogenic compounds in shoots were about threefold the callus amount.
- Intervention effect Linamarase activity was higher in light regenerated organs than darkness.
- Intervention effect β-cyanoalanine synthase activity was higher in light regenerated organs than darkness.
- Association Regeneration frequency was correlated with cyanogenic potential.
- Mechanism The authors propose free HCN as a contributor to organogenesis and regeneration.
