Abstract

Qualitative and quantitative differences in cytokinin activity of germinating pea seeds were observed at different periods. The cytokinins having chromatographic properties similar to zeatin and zeatin riboside increased appreciably during germination whereas a decrease was noted for bound cytokinins.
