Abstract
Gibberellin (GA) specific, high-affinity monoclonal antibodies have been used to assay the GA content of various plant tissues and to purify selected GAs by immunoaffinity chromatography. These immunological techniques may not stand alone as a general method of GA analysis. The results of this study indicate, however, that in conjunction with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry for positive GA identification, radioimmunoassay and immunoaffinity chromatography are extremely powerful tools for purifying and quantifying GAs from plant tissues.
