Abstract: | Effects of diamines, polyamines, and other basic amino acidson the growth of lettuce hypocotyls were investigated. Putrescine,cadaverine and agmatine enhanced the hypocotyl growth in thepresence of gibberellin, while spermidine and spermine werenon-effective. Arginine and ornithine, which may be precursorsof putrescine, had similar effect. While the growth inhibitiondue to arcaine (1,4-diguanidinobutane), which is a agmatineiminohydrolase inhibitor, was recovered by agmatine, cadaverine,putrescine, and spermidine, putrescine most effectively recoveredits growth-enhancing effect.
