Title
Control of Wild Carrot Somatic Embryo Development by
Brent A. Earnshaw; Morris A. Johnson 1987
Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Ascorbic acid suppressed wild carrot somatic embryogenesis with little effect on biomass.
- Intervention effect Vitamin E suppressed wild carrot somatic embryogenesis with little effect on biomass.
- Observation Endogenous ascorbic acid concentrations were lower during embryo development than cell proliferation.
- Observation GSSG reductase activity was greater in proliferating than developing cultures.
- Mechanism 2,4-D governed cellular GSH and AA concentrations.
- Mechanism Redox status was identified as a strong determinant of proliferative versus developmental growth.
- Mechanism The authors proposed that 2,4-D acts partly through endogenous antioxidant levels.
