| Abstract: | The campound 3-methyleneoxindole was synthesized and tested in three “biological systems for auxin activity: Root initarion in pea stem currings, extension growth of etiolated pea stem segments and Avena first internodes. In none of the systems was found any effect — positive or negative of methyleneoxindole. It thus seems improbable that the compound participates in the growth regulation of these plants. |
