Abstract
The relationships between protein- and RNA synthesis and the germination behaviour of lettuce seeds were studied. Protein synthesis starts right at the beginning of imbibition and increases until the radicle protrudes. According to our results the causes for a blocked development of scotodormant lettuce seeds cannot be seen in a generally reduced protein or RNA synthesis. Byl studován vztah mezi syntézou bílkovin a RNA a průběhem klíčení semen salátu. Syntéza bílkovin probíhá hned od počátku bubření a zvyšuje se až do založení kořínku. Z výsledků vyplývá, že příčiny zbrzděného vývoje skotodormantních semen salátu nelze hledat v celkovém snížení syntézy bílkovin nebo RNA.Keywords
