Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Cotyledon poly A+ RNA translation was high at stages I–III, highest at stage II, then markedly lower at IV.
- Observation Translation activity in germinating cotyledons was low until 12 h after imbibition and rose thereafter.
- Observation Abundant mRNA populations changed between stages II and III of seed development.
- Observation Stage III mRNA populations closely resembled those of mature stage IV seeds.
- Observation Stage III immature seeds produced α-amylase at levels similar to mature seeds.
- Observation Polypeptides associated with stored mRNA translation were detected at early germination stages.
