Abstract
Kinetin treatment increased the level of an extractable indoleacetyl conjugate, apparently indoleacetylaspartic acid (IAAsp) in germinating seeds and young plants of Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Alabaster. The level of this substance in extracts of treated seeds was always higher than that from water treated seeds irrespective of whether the seeds had been extracted 24, 48 or 72 h after the beginning of the treatment. In all parts of young bean plants treated with kinetin there was more of the substance than in the corresponding parts of water treated plants.
