The effect of phenylurea with reported cytokinin-like activities on seed germination, seedling growth, activities of antioxidant enzymes, polyphenol, peroxidase, indoleacetic acid oxidase, and total phenolic compounds, flavonoids was investigated in stressed barley seedlings. The application of phenylurea decreases the activity of peroxidase, indoleacetic acid oxidase and increases the activity of polyphenol oxidase with decrease in total phenolic compounds and flavonoids and consequent increase in growth rate. Saline (NaCl) stress in barley seedlings causes an increase in total phenolic compounds, flavonoids and enhancement of peroxidase and indoleacetic acid oxidase activities and consequent decrease in growth rate. The adverse effect of salt stress on germination, antioxidant enzymes, phenolic compounds, flavonoids can partially be rectified by phenylurea.

An ester is found in small concentrations in vegetative pineapple plants, with spectral characteristics in the ultraviolet of an ester of p-coumaric acid. p-Coumaric acid is obtained after hydrolysis, and the remaining aqueous hydrolysate indicates the presence of quinic acid lactone on chromatograms. On the basis of neutral equivalent determinations, boric acid conductivity and periodate oxidation experiments, and analyses following mild hydrolysis, the structure of the ester is suggested to be a quinyl-di-p-coumarate. It serves in the plant as a cofactor for pineapple indoleacetic acid oxidase.

A pressure-membrane technique has been developed to physically manipulate the water potential of in vitro enzyme preparations. Enzyme preparations were subjected to a range of water potentials using this technique.
