Abstract:
Of nine plant growth regulators (indoleacetic acid, 1-naphthalene acetic acid, gibberellic acid, giberellin 4/7, 6-benzylaminopurine, 6-furfurylaminopurine, abscisic acid, and 1-aminocyclopropane carboxylic acid) tested, only 6-benzylaminopurine and abscisic acid affected (14)C-photosynthate unloading from excised seed coats of Phaseolus vulgaris L. Unloading, in the presence of KCl, was stimulated by 25 to 40%. Stimulation occurred immediately for 6-benzylaminopurine and for abscisic acid within 10 to 12 minutes of application.
