Evidence that thermoinhibition and the alleviation thereof by oxygen plus kinetin in Great Lakes lettuce seed is related to mitochondrial function
Thermoinhibition of Lactuca sativa L.cv. Great Lakes 659 seeds occurred at 36 ˚C. Thermoinhibition was alleviated by a combination of 100% O₂ and kinetin (10 mg dm⁻³). Chloramphenicol nullified the effect of O₂ plus kinetin. A number of mitochondrial activities (respiration, coupling, certain matri...
