Inhibition of lettuce seed germination by cycloheximide and chloramphenicol is alleviated by kinetin and oxygen

C Schultz et al. Plant Physiol. 1991 Oct.

Abstract

Kinetin alleviates cycloheximide inhibition and oxygen alleviates chloramphenicol inibition of germination of lettuce seeds (Lactuca sativa L. cv Grand Rapids). The effect is not due to increased but rather a substitution for protein synthesis. A cytokinin and energy supply appear prime requirements for germination.
