โœฆ Synopsis


A new abscisic acid (ABA) analogue has been isolated from tomato plants. High levels of the compound are found in flacca mutants compared with normal isogenic controls. The analogue also accumulates in response to water stress. Three alternative structures, consistent with the mass spectrum, have been proposed. The possibility that the compound may be a biosynthetic precursor of ABA is considered.

Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) mutants altered in the regulation of synthesis of aspartate-derived amino acids were sought by screening embryos for growth on a medium containing lysine plus threonine. One mutant, Rothamsted 2501, was selected with good growth. From the segregation of resistance in the
