Abstract
A short pulse of red light or continuous far-red light enhanced the activities of acid and alkaline phosphatases in 5-day-old etiolated sorghum cv. Pusa Chari 6 seedlings compared with the dark controls. For 30 min after the red light pulse 100% and 80% of the red/far-red photoreversibilitys was maintained for the acid and alkaline phosphatases, resp. Thereafter, the photoreversibility escape reaction was fast, being completed within 180 min. Cycloheximide and 6-methyl purine markedly inhibited red light enhancement of the activities of the phosphatases, but chloramphenicol, lincomycin and rifamycin SV were ineffective. In spite of photoregulation of both the phosphatases at the time of de novo synthesis, it appeared that control of the acid and alkaline phosphatases might be affected by 2 independent initial actions of phytochrome
