Abstract
The cucumber cotyledon greening bioassay for cytokinins was modified by using 95% acetone-ethanol instead of 80% acetone as extraction solvent. The cotyledons were extracted directly with a 2:1 (v/v) acetone-ethanol solution in dark for 24 hours, omitting the homogenization and centrifugation operations of the previous bioassay. The modified bioassay is more convenient and especially useful in screening cytokinin-active substance from a large number of samples.
