Summary
Two new gibberellins, gibberellins A26 and A27 (GA26 and GA27), and their glucosides have been isolated from immature seeds of Japanese morning-glory (Pharbitis nil), together with GA8 and its glucoside. GA26, GA27 and their glucosides showed only slight growth-promoting activities on seedlings of rice, dwarf maize and cucumber.
