Abstract

Life Sciences & Biomedicine Plant Sciences Science & Technology
Detached (old and young) date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) leaves floated either on kinetin (10 and 40 mg/L) or water showed a decrease in chlorophyll, protein and RNA. Kinetin treatment resulted in a considerable, though not total, reduction in these losses. The intensity of the kinetin effect varied with the age of the leaf.
