Abstract
Isolated cotyledons of fenugreek (Trigonella foenum graecum L.), which respond rapidly and specifically to the application of cytokinins with stimulated expansion, have been used to study the primary action of kinetin. Gross chemical analysis showed that ribonucleic acid increased within 24 hours in response to kinetin application. 8-Azaguanine inhibited both kinetin-induced expansion and RNA synthesis; 5-fluorodeoxyuridine inhibited only the RNA synthesis.Keywords
