Abstract: | Tentative identification of the cytokinins present in extracts of Dianthus caryophyllus ovaries using High Performance Liquid Chromatography and Radioimmunoassay techniques, revealed the presence of trans-ribosylzeatin, trans-zeatin, dihydrozeatin and N6 (2-isopentenyl)adenine. In addition slow moving compounds (paper chromatography) which could be hydrolysed by -glucosidase were also detected. After hydrolysis the active compounds co-chromatographed with zeatin and ribosylzeatin. |
