概要
Three lines of evidence indicate a connection between high spermidine levels and floral initiation in thin-layer tissue cultures of Wisconsin-38 tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.). (1) Spermidine levels are much higher in floral buds than in vegetative buds. (2) Inhibition of spermidine synthesis by cyclohexylamine prevents the rise in spermidine titer, inhibits floral initiation and promotes the formation of vegetative buds instead. (3) Application of exogenous spermidine causes floral initiation in cultures which would otherwise form vegetative buds.
