Planta Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Zusammenfassung

In Pflanzen einer einjährigen Rasse vonHyoscyamus niger wurde das Vorhandensein gibberellinartiger Verbindungen nachgewiesen. In der Gibberellinzusammensetzung vegetativer und photoperiodisch induzierter Exemplare bestehen gewisse quantitative und/oder qualitative Unterschiede.

    This work is part of a project on the morphogenetic role of the gibberellins, supported by the National Science Foundation, Washington, D.C., and Merck and Company, Rahway, New Jersey. The experiments were started at the Department of Botany, University of California, Los Angeles, and continued at the Max-Planck-Institut für Biologie, AbteilungMelchers, Tübingen, Germany, where the author spent part of his sabbatical leave from the University of California, supported by a senior postdoctoral fellowship from the National Science Foundation. The author wishes to express his sincere appreciation to Prof.G. Melchers for his generous hospitality, and to MissIlse Möller for technical assistance.
