1. No hybrid plants of Nicotiana tabacum + Petunia hybrida were regenerated from calluses of fusion experiments with mesophyll protoplasts of N. tabacum s, s (2) and v and of P. hybrida mu 1 (2). 2. After in vitro pollination of ovules of N. tabacum with pollen of P. hybrida, filamentous proembryos
A 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase (EC 1.14.11.11) which catalyzes the 4-hydroxylation of desacetoxyvindoline was purified to homogeneity. Three oligopeptides isolated from a tryptic digest of the purified protein were microsequenced and one oligopeptide showed significant homology to
