When exposed to light, etiolated cucumber cotyledons showed a lag phase in chlorophyll biosynthesis. Pretreatment of the cotyledons with BA eliminated the lag phase and stimulated chlorophyll formation. In BA-treated cotyledons the incorporation of 14C-leucine into protein and the total synthesis of protein were higher than in the controls.
