Soybean callus treated with 6‐benzylaminopurine and its riboside elicit better growth than 6‐benzyladenosine 5′‐monophosphate. This can probably be attributed to differences in the rate at which the different compounds are taken up and/or metabolized. In the case of lettuce seed germination the ribotide is unable to substitute for red light in the dark; this supports previous suggestions that in certain situations it is physiologically less active than the free base or riboside.
