Abstract: The cytokinin activity of a group of derivatives of N-n-butyl-N'-arylthiourea and their effect on the uptake of amino acids and the accumulation of total nitrogen in seven-day barley seedlings have been investigated. It was established that N-n-butyl-N'-2,4-dinitrophenyl-thiosemicarbazide, N-n-butyl-N'-o-,m- andp-chlorophonylthioureas, N-n-butyl-N'-3,4-dichlorophenylthiourea and N-n-butyl-N'-2-methyl-4-ehlorophenylthiourea possess a high activity with respect to the retardation of the chlorophyll breakdown. Substances with a high cytokinin activity cause an increase in the amount of total nitrogen and amino acids, mainly of glutamic acid, aspartic acid and serine in the roots and loaves of seven-day barley seedlings. |
