| Abstract: | In Stizolobium hassjoo, stizolamine is located in seeds and pericarps and is not found in mature leaves, stems and roots. The content of stizolamine in seeds and the fruits increases with their maturation but do not correlate with their dry weights. A feeding experiment showed that guanosine triphosphate [U-14C] is effectively incorporated into stizolamine in pericarps. |
