- Abstract
The article discusses a study which investigated the biosynthesis and distribution of phytoecdysteroids (PEs) 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) in Achyranthes japonica plants. It states that the total concentration of 20E each plant first stayed at a constant level and increased significantly after the initial leaf pair (LP) phase, while 20E concentration in a certain plant reduced quickly during vegetative development. It notes that 20E biosynthesis is not confined to particular growth stages or organs.
