Induced mutation to monocotyledony in periwinkle, Catharanthus roseus, and suppression of mutant phenotype by kinetin

[摘要] A recessive EMS-induced mutation inherited in Mendelian fashion caused monocotyledonous embryo formation and seed germination on high salt medium in Catharanthus roseus. Availability during embryo development of exogenously supplied cytokinin kinetin suppressed the mutant phenotype. These observations suggest that, in C. roseus,insufficiency in endogenous kinetin may lead to monocotyledonous embryo patterning and
