Abstract: | The germination of Amaranthus paniculatus seeds was inhibited by applying paclobutrazol, a specific inhibitor of gibberellin biosynthesis. This inhibition was markedly counteracted by gibberellin A3 (GA3), suggesting that endogenous gibberellins are required for germination in this species. The inhibitory effect of paclobutrazol was also overcome by ethephon (2-chloroethylphosphonic acid) or the precursor of ethylene biosynthesis, ACC (1-aminocyclopropane-l-carboxylic acid). Thus the physiological effect of gibberellin can be mimicked by ethylene released from ethephon or synthesised from exogenous ACC. It is suggested, that endogenous gibberellins are involved in germination of Amaranthus paniculatus seeds and that action of GA3 can be substituted by ethylene.Abbreviations ACC
