Summary
Chemical and radioautographic studies on sycamore seedling stems have shown an involvement of the Golgi body in cell-wall polysaccharide synthesis from tritiated glucose. Tritiated phenylalanine is shown to be incorporated only into lignin after short incubation times. The patterns of labelling are compared and discussed for the two precursors.
