Sugar changes in young seedlings and decotylized embryos of Lupinus luteus

L. Ratajczak, H. Mazurowa

Abstract


Mobilisation of sugars in Lupinus luteus during the germination and in the early developmental period has been investigated. The embrional decotylized axes of lupin, cultured in vitro on mineral medium with sucrose, accumulate an excessive amount of sugars. The reason seems to be the static character of the medium as compared with the metabolism of the cotyledons.
