| Photoautotrophic Cultured Plant Cells: A Novel System to Survey New Photosynthetic Electron Transport Inhibitors  | | | Abstract
| The responses o f photoautotrophic (PA) cultured cells o f tobacco (N icotiana tabacum cv. Samsun N N) and liverwort (M archantia polym orpha L.) to thirty-eight cyclohexanedione de rivatives were surveyed. Each derivative was also tested for inhibitory activity on photosyn thetic electron transport (PET), using isolated thylakoids, and herbicidal activity, using seed lings and mature plants. Comparison o f the results from the different assays showed that the responses o f PA cells to each com pound correlated more closely with the responses o f seed lings and mature plants than did the results o f the Hill reaction assays. Our findings suggest that PA cultured cells would be a suitable screening material for identifying potential herbi cides with PET-inhibiting activity. | | |
