The stems and leaves of the Dolichos biflorus plant contain a lectin that cross-reacts with antiserum against the seed lectin. This cross-reactive material (CRM) was followed during early seedling growth, stem elongation, and seed development using a specific radioimmunoassay.No CRM was detected in developing seeds, but very low levels were found in dormant and imbibed seeds. As germination proceeds, the CRM accumulates at the apex of both etiolated and green seedlings in the epicotyl and leaves. Lower amounts of CRM are found in the cotyledons and hypocotyl, but no CRM was detected in the roots.The amount of CRM in the first and second stem internodes increases during elongation and gradually declines after the completion of elongation. Approximately 80% of the CRM in the stems of 19-day-old Dolichos biflorus plants is associated with the elongating tissues. These results are discussed with respect to the possible roles of lectins in plants.
