nicotinic acid/glycine max

A soluble enzyme which catalyzes the transfer of the methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to the nitrogen atom of pyridine-3-carboxylic acid (nicotinic acid) could be detected in protein preparations from heterotrophic cell suspension cultures of soybean (Glycine max L.). Enzyme activity was

This study was aimed to determine the contents and the association of B vitamins from seeds of 10 black and one yellow soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) varieties with either green or yellow cotyledon. Thiamine, flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), riboflavin and total riboflavin were found highest in

The aim of this study was to reveal the pyridine metabolism in leaves of two mangrove legumes, Derris indica (= Millettia pinnata or Pongamia pinnata) and Caesalpinia crista. Radioactivity from [carbonyl-14C]nicotinamide supplied exogenously to young leaf disks was recovered in nicotinic acid,

Using callus derived from immature embryos, regeneration of viable plants was obtained in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.). Depending on the composition of the medium, regeneration occurred via embryogenesis or via organogenesis. Embryogenesis resulted when embryos were plated on Murashige and Skoog

Reduction of ferric leghemoglobin to ferrous leghemoglobin in soybean nodules (Glycine max [L.] Merr. cv Woodworth) was studied using a spectrophotometer equipped with an in-cell space diffuse reflectance accessory. Nodule slices prepared and scanned under nitrogen gas showed a ferrous leghemoglobin

Symbiotically defective auxotrophic mutants were isolated by transposon Tn5 mutagenesis of Rhizobium fredii HH303, a fast-growing microsymbiont of North American commercial soybean cultivars such as Glycine max cv. Williams. Three different Tn5-carrying suicide vectors, pBLK1-2, pSUP1011, and pGS9,
