Abstract
Benzylaminopurine (BA) caused an enhancement of chlorophyll and protein content and a reduced elongation of primary barley leaves. BA did not change the rhythmic pattern of14CO2 fixation and activities of RuBP carboxylase, RuBP oxygenase, glycolate oxidase and phosphoglycolate phosphatase, but the enzyme activities were enhanced and the level of14CO2 fixation was reduced. Light/dark14CO2 evolution ratio was affeoted by BA only in older leaves. BA acts sequentially on the activities of photosynthetic and photorespiratory enzymes.This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
