Popis: Single treatment of expanding radish leaves with N1-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N2-phenylurea (4-PU-30) lead to the stimulation of root cambial tissue activity and root growth. Leaf thickness, the volume of chlorophyll (Chl) containing cells per unit leaf area, starch content in the chloroplasts, and the Chl content increased simultaneously. These alterations were associated with increased leaf net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance in treated plants.
