Descriptif
Looking to all these information, that exogenous amino
acids could significantly affect membrane properties, the
present attempt is direct-to explore their role further in
cellular activities. Present thesis attempts this in two
distinct ways.
1. Observations that amino acids can affect water transfer
across the membrane, led to studies on their effects on seed
geraiination, since imbibition and uptake of water is a
prerequisite for seed to germinate.
2. Pronounced effects on seed germination could only partly
be due to effect on water uptake, therefore, it was also
checked if these could affect the activities of hydrolysing
29
enzymes viz« » amylase and protease. Seed germination is
already known to be intimately related to activities of
these enzymes.
