Abstract
When dihydrozeatin riboside was supplied to lupin (Lupinus angustifolius) bark, a new nucleotide-like metabolite was detected at completion of uptake, but not after transfer to water for a further 12 h. The transient metabolite was purified and identified as O-acetyl-9-β-D-ribofuranosyldihydrozeatin 5′-monophosphate. A metabolite of zeatin riboside formed in developing inflorescences was identified as the corresponding unsaturated compound, O-acetyl-9-β-d-ribofuranosylzeatin 5′-monophosphate.
