Low levels of ionizing radiation induce two
translocation responses in soybean: a reduction in
photoassimilate export from leaves and a change in the
distribution pattern of exported photoassimilate within
the plant. ...
The hypothesis that rapid y-aminobutyric acid (GABA) accumulation is
a plant defense against phytophagous insects was investigated. Simulation

Reactions of 5,6- and 4,5-epoxycholestane derivatives with strong
bases were investigated.
Epoxidation of 3a-acetoxycholest-5-ene also gave a new compound along
with the anticipated epoxides. Interconversions of the ...
