Inhibitors from Carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) I. Nature of the Interaction With Gibberellic Acid on Shoot Growth

M R Corcoran et al. Plant Physiol. 1968 Jun.

Abstract

Concentrated whole extracts of the immature fruit of carob and 3 fractions derived from this extract have been shown to inhibit the gibberellic acid induced growth of pea seedlings. The inhibition can be completely reversed by increasing the amount of gibberellic acid. The inhibitors do not reduce the endogenous growth of seedlings but only that induced by gibberellic acid. One of the fractions is a newly separated one not previously reported.
