Myo-inositol content of lily pollen☆
Journal ArticleDOI
Conversion of d-glucosone to oxalic acid and l-(+)-tartaric acid in detached leaves of Pelargonium
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the oxidative cleavage of l -ascorbic acid to oxalic acid and l -tartaric acid in detached leaves of Pelargonium crispum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies on l-ascorbic acid biosynthesis and metabolism in Parthenocissus quinquefolia L. (vitaceae)
TL;DR: Results are consistent with a biosynthetic pathway from d -glucose to AA that involves a hydrogen-exchanging epimerization at C-5 as reported earlier for the geraniaceous plant Pelargonium crispum, but differing from P.crispum in biosynthesis and metabolism of ThA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence of l(+)-tartaric acid and its formation from d-gluconate or d-xylo-5-hexulosonate in bean leaf (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
Kazumi Saito,Frank A. Loewus +1 more
TL;DR: Young leaves from seedlings of several cultivars of the common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris, were analyzed for l -(+)-tartaric acid (TA), and only TA-containing cvs responded with an increase in TA.
Journal ArticleDOI
1l-myo-inositol-1-phosphate synthase in serum from Hevea latex
TL;DR: The activity of partially purified synthase from Hevea latex approximates that found in pollen extracts from Lilium longiflorum .
