l ornithine/ダイズ

The effect of the inhibitor N(2)-bromoacetyl-l-ornithine (NBAO) on the biosynthesis of ornithine in higher plants, was investigated using soybean cells (Glycine max L. var Mandarin), grown in suspension culture. The NBAO was found to reduce the specific activity of the enzyme

The foreign Bt gene was transferred into protoplasts of soybean using PEG and PLO methods, respectively. The result indicated that the transformation frequency of PLO method was about 0.1% higher than PEG method. The PCR and Southern blotting analysis of the regeneration plants confirmed the

Active polyamine biosynthesis occurs in the embryonic axis, but not in the cotyledons, during germination of Glycine max (L.) cv Williams seeds and subsequent growth of the young seedlings. The hypocotyl and radicle synthesize and accumulate considerable amounts of cadaverine (Cad) and putrescine

In suspension-cultured cells of Glycine max and Catharanthus roseus, marked callose synthesis can be induced by digitonin and chitosan. Leakage of a limited pool of electrolytes precedes callose formation, K(+) representing the major cation lost. Poly-L-ornithine, as well as the ionophores A 23187
