Adventitious Root Formation in Woody Tissue: Peroxidase: A Predictive Marker of Root Induction in Betula pendula

Peroxidase activity was measured in Betula pendula and a time-course curve of activity was used to establish a predictive marker of root induction. Results obtained indicate that the root induction phase terminates after 9h. The findings are discussed in light of the hypothesis of the coincidence of...

Description
Summary:	Peroxidase activity was measured in Betula pendula and a time-course curve of activity was used to establish a predictive marker of root induction. Results obtained indicate that the root induction phase terminates after 9h. The findings are discussed in light of the hypothesis of the coincidence of peak auxin levels and termination of root induction.
