Quantitative differences in ascorbic acid oxidase and phenolase activities and auxin content of different forms of Hedera helix L1
Department of Plant Pathology, University of Missouri Columbia, Missouri 65201, U.S.A.
Ascorbic acid oxidase activities in Htdcra helix L. are relatively unaffected by senescence but increased with maturation. Auxin content, however, is increased by senescence but decreased with maturation. The effects of these same stresses on phenolase activity is the reverse, indicating an inverse relationship between auxin content and phenolase activity.
