Abstract
Effects of 6- (N-benzyl) aminopurin (BAP) on weight of turfgrass, Lolium perenne L. and chlorophyll content in the plant were studied in a controlled growth chamber.
Absorption and translocation of 14C-BAP in two turfgrasses, L. perenne L. and Agrostis stolonifera L., were also studied. And the following results were obtained.
Weight of plant of L. Perenne and chlorophyll content in the plant were both increased with the treatments of 6-BAP at 10-7-10-5 M. There were quantitative differences in the rate of the absorption and the translocation among two turfgrass species, L. perenne and A. stolonifera.
Thses differences of BAP my cause the differences in the promotive effects of BAP among turfgrass plants.
