Molina, Jean A. E.; Alexander, Martin published an article in 1967, the title of the article was The effect of antimetabolites on nodulation and growth of leguminous plants.COA of Formula: C5H5NO3S And the article contains the following content:
The influence of antimetabolites of amino acids, vitamins, auxins, purines, and pyrimidines on nodule formation and growth of legumes was investigated using Lotus corniculatus and excised roots of Phaseolus vulgaris. Many of the antimetabolites were toxic to L. corniculatus plants, P. vulgaris roots, or both at the concentrations tested, but several increased top length without affecting root development of the former species. Nodule abundance on L. corniculatus was increased by indole, 2-phenylbutyric acid, D- and L-leucine, barbituric acid, oxythiamine, and quercetin. α-Picolinic acid, a niacin antagonist, prevented nodule formation by this plant species, although it had no apparent effect on root or top growth or on proliferation of the infective rhizobium in vitro. No such influence on nodulation of L. corniculatus was noted with pyridine-3-sulfonate, another niacin antimetabolite. Benzene hexachloride and α-methylglutamic acid inhibited nodulation without seemingly affecting development of excised bean roots, while pyridine-3-sulfonate markedly enhanced nodulation. Nodulation of excised roots of Medicago saliva and Melilotus alba inoculated with infective rhizobia was demonstrated. 17 references. The experimental process involved the reaction of Pyridine-3-sulfonic acid(cas: 636-73-7).COA of Formula: C5H5NO3S
