Abstract

Seed and root exudates were collected aseptically and analysed for auxins, gibberellins and cytokinins using paper, thin-layer chromatography, bioassay and gas-chromatographic techniques.

Gas-chromatographic analysis revealed the presence of IAA and GA3 in seed exudates only. Two cytokinins were found in seed and one in root exudates, respectively.
