✦ Synopsis


Thin-layer chromatography, gas-liquid chromatography, and mass spectrometry were used to identify gibberellins isolated from mature seeds of both Cucumis sativus (cucumber) and Cucumis melo (muskmelon). The gibberellins were extracted and purified by organic solvent fractionation, paper and thin-layer chromatography, and crystallization. Seeds of C. sativus were found to contain gibberellins A1, A3, A4, and A7 with A1 the predominant species. Seeds of C. melo contained gibberellins A1 and A3 and a trace of A5. Direct probe mass spectrometry of the gibberellins proved successful for identification purposes. Distinctive molecular ions and fragmentation patterns were obtained for each gibberellin.

Immunological methods are described for the separation and purification of 13-hydroxy and 13-deoxy-gibberellins of Cucumis sativus. Qualitative and quantitative data show that 13-deoxygibberellins predominate over 13-hydroxygibberellins in stems and leaves of this species.

In tomato, nine independent EMS-induced mutants representing recessive mutations at three different loci (gib-1, gib-2, and gib-3) were isolated. Six of these have an almost absolute gibberellin requirement for seed germination and elongation growth. In addition, the leaves are darker green, smaller
