Complete Release of Axillary Buds from Apical Dominance in Intact, Light-Grown Seedlings of Pisum sativum L. following a Single Application of Cytokinin ¹

Department of Plant Sciences, Rhodes University, Grahamstown 6140, South Africa

Single applications of either 6-benzyladenine or zeatin to inhibited axillary buds of intact, light-grown seedlings of Pisum sativum L. cv Black-eyed Susan, resulted in the formation of rapidly elongating, leafy shoots. Similar treatment with kinetin or isopentenyladenine caused only limited but outgrowth which stopped 6 days after application.
