[Metabolic changes in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants under action of bioregulator stifun]
Abstract:
Under action of growth-stimulating concentrations of bioregulator stifun on wheat plants, an increase of functional activity of nucleoli of meristematic cells; contents of lectin (wheat germ agglutinin); and activity of proteinases, tripsin inhibitors, and ATPase activity was established. The pool of free amino acids was increased under bioregulator use. Levels of methionine, phenylalanine, cysteine, lysine, and tyrosine were increased. It is likely that stifun could activate protein biosynthesis in wheat plants.

Sunlight, the primary source of energy in plants, is first absorbed by the chlorophyll pigments present in their leaves. Plants then use this energy to carry out photosynthesis, where water is oxidized into oxygen and carbon dioxide...
