Incubation of isolated scutellum of maize seeds with 10-7M for 12 h increased RNA synthesis several-fold. ABA at 10-3-10-6M did not inhibit RNA synthesis but reduced the stimulatory effect of GA on RNA synthesis. The possible sequences of phytohormone action on parts of germinating maize seeds were discussed.
