Free amino acids in the panicles of Dactylis glomerata in the course of their development

T. Dąbrowska

Abstract


The composition of free amino acids and proline content in various parts of Dactylis glomerata panicles at different stages of their development were determined by paper chromatography and electrophoresis. The proline level in the spikelets was found to change widely in the course of their development. The results are discussed with reference to the role of proline in the nitrogen metabolism of plants.
