Abstrakt: Endogenous fusicoccin (FC) or related substances were sought in horseradish ( Armoracia rusticana P.) roots. An actively growing root culture was derived from plants transformed with Agrobacterium rhizogenes. The presence of FC-like substances in ethanolic extracts from roots was established in a radioreceptor binding assay with plasmalemmal FC receptors and in radioimmune analysis with an antiserum specific for FC A. FC-like ligands were found in the tissue and medium of aseptically grown culture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
