Abstract
Vitamin D and related compounds (hydroxylated derivatives and glycosides) occur naturally in certain plants. The metabolism of vitamin D3 in Solanum malacoxylon Sendtn. is similar in certain respects to that in animal systems. There is also evidence that vitamin D3, plays a role in processes regulated by Ca2+ in plants. Vitamin D3 possesses plant growth substance activities and in particular enhances adventitious root formation.
