| Abstract: | Protease activity increased in attached cotyledons of germinated peas (Pisum sativum L. cv. Alaska) as the stored proteins declined but did not increase in excised cotyledons incubated for the same length of time. Cotyledons of seeds germinated in the presence of a casein hydrolysate solution developed less protease activity than did those germinated on water. These results suggest that accumulation of amino acids regulates the protease level in the cotyledons of germinating peas. |
