THE CYTOKININS IN A LIQUID SEAWEED EXTRACT: COULD THEY BE THE ACTIVE INGREDIENTS? |
| Authors: | K.J. Sanderson, P.E. Jameson |
| Abstract:
A complex of cytokinins is present in the commercial liquid seaweed extract "Maxicrop". Zeatin, dihydrozeatin, isopentenyladenine and isopentenyladenosine have been unequivocally identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Cytokinin glucosides have also been detected by the tobacco callus bioassay. Indole-3-acetic acid has been unequivocally identified by GC-MS in freshly made-up Maxicrop. | |
