Title
Relationship Between DNA Synthesis and Water Content During Ripening ofVicia FabaSeed
Alberto Brunori Caryologia 1967. doi:10.1080/00087114.1967.10796271
Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation DNA synthesis stopped at 75% cotyledon water content.
- Observation Mitotic activity continued above 65% water content.
- Observation Some G2 cells had not reached G1 at full ripening.
- Observation Reserve accumulation persisted while water content exceeded 55%.
- Mechanism The authors infer distinct critical water levels limit the examined ripening processes.
