Abstract
Kinetin and all other cytokinins tested, inhibited the conjugation of [14C]2,4-D to amino acids when supplied simultaneously with the 2,4-D to cultured soybean cells. Upon transfer to hormone free medium, the cytokinin-treated cells released more of their [14C]2,4-D than did the control cells. Initial exposure to low 2,4-D and high kinetin levels resulted in the greatest release of 2,4-D upon subsequent transfer. The observed alteration in 2,4-D metabolism did not seem to be correlated with growth rate. Appropriate treatment of soybean cells with kinetin resulted in 2,4-D metabolism that resembled the 2,4-D metabolism of embryogenic carrot cells. No new morphological structures were observed in these soybean cultures, indicating that other factors are related to the failure of soybean cells to regenerate in culture.This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
