Cytoplasmic Male Sterility in Barley 1: VIII. LIPOXYGENASE ACTIVITY AND ANTHER AMINO NITROGEN IN THE msm1-Rfm1a SYSTEM

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The lipoxygenase (LOX) activity was determined in almost isogenic types of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.): normal cv. Adorra, cytoplasmic male sterile (msm1), and msm1 barley with restored fertility, heterozygous for the Rfm1a restorer gene. The LOX activity was lowest in male steriles in the leaf tissue studied at the anthesis stage. The LOX activity in developing anthers was higher than in leaf tissue, and decreased during degeneration of the sterile anthers.
