The influence of photoperiod on incorporation of precursors into tocopherols and plastoquinone in Xanthium strumarium L

Radioactivity from tyrosine applied to leaves of Xanthium strumarium L. was incorporated into α- and γ-tocopherol and plastoquinone. Time-course studies on vegetative plants showed that γ-tocopherol was rapidly labelled and turned over, while α-tocopherol showed no sign of turnover. The same pattern...
