This study was to investigate the participation of ornithine decarboxylase in the putrescine biosynthesis in corn embryo. Kinetin (4.7 x .00001 M) and 6-benzylaminopurine (2.22 x .00001 M) were found to increase ca. 1.5-fold putrescine content in corn grown in medium containing kinetin and 6-benzylaminopurine (6-BAP) for 3 days whereas kinetin was found to decrease ca. 30% spermidine and spermine, respectively. KCl (3 x .001 M) was found to decrease more than 50% putrescine content
