Abstract
Summary A study has been made of changes in α-amylase activity in germinating seeds of Cyamopsis tetragonoloba . Orthofluorophenoxy-α-methyl acetic acid and N-benzylorthofluorophenoxy acetamide inhibited growth and α-amylase activity in cotyledons and seedling axes of treated seeds. Gibberellic acid increased the biosynthsis of α-amylase resulting in its enhanced activity. When seeds were treated with fluorine substituted phenoxy compounds and gibberellic acid simultaneously, the enhanced synthesis of α-amylase due to latter was reversed by the former.
