TL;DR: GA17, GA19, GA20, GA29, GA44 and 13-hydroxy-GA12, now named GA53, were identified by GC-MS in immature seeds of Vicia faba (broad bean), which differs from Phaseolus and Vigna, of the tribe Phaseoleae in both these respects.
Abstract: GA17, GA19, GA20, GA29, GA44 and 13-hydroxy-GA12, now named GA53, were identified by GC-MS in immature seeds of Vicia faba (broad bean). Also identified were a GA catabolite, two polyhydroxykauranoic acids, and abscisic, phaseic and dihydrophaseic acids. The GAs of Vicia are hydroxylated at C-13, in common with those of other legumes. However the GAs of Vicia are not hydroxylated at C-3, nor do they appear to be readily conjugated. In these respects Vicia resembles Pisum, another member of the tribe Viciae. Vicia differs from Phaseolus and Vigna, of the tribe Phaseoleae, in both these respects.
