Abstract

Summary Eight cytokinins were detected in germinated chick-pea ( Cicer arietinum L. var. Castellana) seeds. Treatments of extracts with β-glucosidase revealed the presence of two cytokinin glycosides: zeatin glucoside and glycosil zeatin riboside. Treatment with potassium permanganate allowed the differenciation of dihydrozeatin and dihydrozeatin riboside. These dihydro forms are present at advanced stages of germination.
