The effect of benzyladenine and its glucosides on adventitious bud formation on Lachenalia leaf sections

Benzyladenine was more effective in adventitious bud formation on Lachenalia leaf explants than its 3, 7 or 9 glucosides. Of the glucosides tested, 3-glucosylbenzyladenine was the most effective while the 7 glucoside was the least effective. It would seem as if this response is consistent in most physiological systems. Bensieladenien was meer effektief in adventiewe-knopvorming op Lachenalia blaar-eksplante as die 3, 7 en 9 glukosiede van die verbinding. Van die glukosiede wat getoets is, was 3-glukosielbensieladenien die effektiefste en die 7 glukosied die mins effektiewe. Dit skyn asof hierdie reaksie die norm vir die meeste fisiologiese sisteme is.
