Structural aspects of L-arabino-D-galactan glycoprotein from radish leaves have been studied by using /3-D-galactonase, /J-D-galactosidase, and a-L-arabinofuranosidase, in conjunction with methylation analysis.3786...

The second pathway for the de novo synthesis of S-methylcysteine is by methylation of cysteine, as suggested by the more efficient incorporation in radish leaves of radioactivity intoJ-methylcysteine sulfoxide from [ C]cys-teine relative to that from [ C]serine, and from C]methionine rela-... 

The contents of the substrate RuBP-binding sites were 79.3 13.2 and 90.5 7.1 (n = 3) nmol/mg Chi in the spinach and radish leaves, respectively, used in this study. Figure 3 shows the progress of the direct and activated carboxylase reactions of RuBisCO "extracted" at liq. N2 -temperature from leaves in steady photosynthesis at various CO2 concentrations. The direct reactions of the "extracts" of the leaves at 1000 and 3000 ppm CO2 showed large inflections a few min after the start of the reaction, and were similar to those of the activated "extracts" and of Panel A in Fig. 2, indicating that RuBisCO was functioning as the form of ECMRs under such CO2 conditions. The RuBP content of the same leaf powder was 200 to 265 nmol/mg Chi. RuBisCO... 

Biotests for the detection and quantitative measurement of C. measure one of the following 1. stimulation of cell division in tissue cultures, e.g. in tobacco or soybean callus tissue 2. enlargement of cells in the leaf disc test, often with bean or radish leaves 3. inhibition of the loss of chlorophyll from detached leaves 4. promotion of seed germination in the dark. 

Apart from the biosynthesis of S-methylcysteine from O-acetylserine and methanethiol discussed above, direct methylation of cysteine appears to be an alternative possibility, since a methyl group is carried from methionine into S-methylcysteine in radish leaves. S-Methylcysteine and S-methylcysteine...

Cytokinin activity can be assayed conveniently with several plant tissues, including soybean (54) and tobacco (55,56) callus, radish leaf discs (11,12) and lettuce seed (57). The first two of these are probably the most useful since they are not excessively sensitive to light or temperature (58,59) and reflect both cell enlargement and division (60). 

The uptake of radioactive abscisic acid by radish leaf discs has been described87 and its metabolism (to unidentified compounds) by root segments of Phaseolus coccineus88 and by pea seedlings during and after water stress has been reported.89... 

Since the discovery of cytokinins, different adenylate and non-adenylate compounds have been synthesized and classified as potent anticytokinins based on the reduction of cytokinin effects, i.e. chlorophyll retention, radish leaf expansion and callus growth.

Phenyl-l,2,3-triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidin-7(6//)-one has bactericidal activity against Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus (94MI2). 1-Benzyl-4-ethoxycarbonylpiperazinyl-l//-l,2,3-triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine almost completely removed cytokinin-stimulated effects in betacyanin synthesis in Amaranthus caudatus cotyledons, growth of radish cotyledons, and retention of chlorophyll in leaf explants (94MI4). Analogs of 117 were used as effective inhibitors of xanthine oxidase (95FA257).

Try to include some vegetables that will provide you with pickings over many weeks. Good crops to choose include leeks, purple-sprouting broccoli, and parsnips. Quickgrowing crops, such as loose-leaf lettuce, spinach, and radish, sown at intervals of a few weeks, give the same effect.

Effects of chitosan application on the growth and yield of some crops such as soybean, upland rice, mini-tomato, lettuce, and radish were carried out by mixing chitosan 100 kDa at 0.1%-0.5% of soil. It was found to be strongly effective to the growth of the plants. Chitosan application at concentration of 0.5% was suitable for soybean and upland rice, but 0.1% was more effective on lettuce and mini-tomato. The leaf area of lettuce increased by 50%-60% compared to the control after three times of foliar application at concentration of 0.1% and the leaf area of radish also increased up to 100% at concentration of 0.5% (Chibu 2001). 

Although there is a common view that isothiocyanates are important odor components of intact brassicaceous plants, field levels are extremely low and are usually below the level of detection of the usual analytical techniques. The principal vapor component of turnip and radish is hexenyl acetate see Chapter 2). Even in the case of disrupted tissue of cauliflower, turnip, radish, and wallflower (Alyssum), the principal component was Z-hex-3-enyl acetate (Wallbank and Wheatley, 1976). These data suggest that green leaf volatiles may be involved in the attraction of many species of insects to cruciferous plants.
