Aleurone layers from immature developing wheat grains (Triticum aestivum L. cvs. Sappo. and Champlein), though normally insensitive, can be made to produce e-amylase in response to gibberellic acid by subjecting the grains to a period of enforced dehydration prior to introduction to the hormone.

Aleurone tissue from undried immature developing wheat grains (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Sappo), normally insensitive to gibberellic acid, can be made to respond to the hormone by a series of temperature treatments. Incubation of the de-embryoed grains at temperatures above 27Β° C for at least 8 h cau
Phosphatidyl choline (PC) is synthesised in wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Flanders) aleurone tissue during early germination when new endomembranes are being formed. Although gibberellic acid does not ostensibly affect PC levels, it inhibits the incorporation of choline and differentially and spec
Three series of near-isogenic wheat lines differing in dwarfing alleles, in the varietal backgrounds of 'Maris Huntsman', 'Maris Widgeon' and 'Bersee', and the F2 grain on intravarietal F1 hybrids, produced with a chemical hybridising agent, were examined for grain size and protein content. Individu
