The effect of plant growth substances and natural products on RNA and DNA synthesis in leukocytes

M G Farrow et al. Experientia. .

Abstract

The effect of auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins and phenolics on the incorporation of uridine and thymidine into the nucleic acids of human leukocytes was examined. Both the stimulation and inhibition of the incorporation of the precursors was noted. The auxins consistently promoted the incorporation of uridine.
