Abstract: | A combination of 14C labelling experiments of white lupin seedlings(Lupinus albus L.) and high pressure liquid chromatography oftissue extracts indicated active biosynthesis of isoflavonoidsduring the first 24 d of seed germination. These weresynthesized mostly as glucosides and to a lesser extent as aglycones,with trace amounts of prenylated derivatives. There was a generaldecrease in total isoflavonoids during later stages of germination(c. until d 13), which may be ascribed to their turnover and/orexudation into the rhizosphere. In addition, exudation of isoflavonoidsby lupin seeds germinated under sterile conditions continuesfor 12 d with a preferential release of monoprenylated compounds.The relationship between the specific developmental events duringseed germination and the accumulation of certain groups of isoflavonoidsis discussed in relation to their possible role in the growthprocesses of lupin. Key words: Isoflavonoids, glucosides, aglycones, prenylated derivatives, root exudates, white lupin |
