  • Chapter
The Role of Ascorbic Acid in Growth, Differentiation and Metabolism of Plants

Part of the book series: Advances in Agricultural Biotechnology ((AABI,volume 5))

  • 56 Accesses

Abstract

Ascorbic acid CAA) is an important Biologically active reductant which is widely distributed in animal and plant cells and participates in their metabolism (Aberg, 1958, Mapson, 1958; 1958 a; Chinoy, 1962; 1977; Lewin, 1976; Chinoy, N.J. 1978; Chinoy, N.J. et al., 1982). Green plants are capable of biosyntheslzlng their own AA, but not all members of the animal kingdom appear to do so. Human beings and other primates, guinea pigs, marmot, Indian giant fruit bat and pipistrelle, bulbul and insects are incapable of synthesizing the vitamin in their bodies (Burns, 1957; Roy and Guha, 1958; Chatterjee et al., 1961; Dutta Gupta et al., 1972; 1973).
