title: Stimulation of ribonuclease activity and its isoenzymes in germinating seeds of cowpea (Vigna sinensis) by gibberellic acid and adenosine-3',5-cyclic monophosphate.
abstract: Application of GA3 and cyclic AMP to cowpea seedings caused a 2-3 fold stimulation of RNAase activity, together with the augmentation of RNAase isoenzymes. Inhibitor studies indicated the requirement of fresh RNA and protein synthesis for enzyme stimulation.
