Chlorophyll accumulation in black pine seedlings treated with 5-aminolevulinic acid
- 1 Institute for the Application of Nuclear Energy, Belgrade University, Banatska 31b, Zemun, Yugoslavia
5-Aminolevulinic acid (10-5 M), a key precursor in chlorophyll biosynthetic pathway, stimulated chlorophyll accumulation in the dark grown black pine (Pinus nigra Arn.) seedlings and did not affect chlorophyll accumulation in the light.
