Polyamines and adventitious root formation in Vitis vinifera L.
OENO One, 2002 The effects of polyamines were examined for growth and polyamine contents in cultings, callus and primary adventitious roots of Vitis vinifera L. Variations in free, conjugated and wall-bound polyamines in cuttings were observed during rhizogenesis.
