Abstract
Application of mouse submaxillary gland epidermal growth factor to young grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor cv. Rio] seedlings at low concentrations (.apprxeq.0.4-4 .mu.M) increased shoot growth significantly over 3 and 6 day periods. The effects were dose-dependent.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
