Abstract

Recently detected but unidentified cytokinin activity in crown gall tumor tissue from Vinca rosea L. grown on media containing sources of reduced nitrogen has now been attributed to two adenine-type cytokinins. These compounds are glucopyranosyl derivatives of zeatin and ribosylzeatin. The substitution in each case is on the isopentenyl chain of the parent compound. Neither of these compounds had activity in the soybean callus bioassay at concentrations lower than 1 nm whereas zeatin had activity at 0.1 nm.
