Effect of ferulic and β-fluoroferulic isopropylamine salts on solid and liquid cultures of carnation
The isopropylamine salt of ferulic acid and its β-fluoro analogue reduced vitrification symptoms of carnation explants in liquid cultures. Both compounds reduced growth, and peroxidase activity in soluble, membrane, and wall fractions, which might account for their morphogenetic effects. Treatment w...

Summary: | The isopropylamine salt of ferulic acid and its β-fluoro analogue reduced vitrification symptoms of carnation explants in liquid cultures. Both compounds reduced growth, and peroxidase activity in soluble, membrane, and wall fractions, which might account for their morphogenetic effects. Treatment with the fluoro analogue had no effect on lignin composition. Thus antimetabolite or specific effect of this analogue could not be shown. |
