Abstract
The anthrone-positive material extractable in 80 percent alcohol, whose disappearance is correlated with the breaking of dormancy, has been found to be a non-reducing sugar which yields only glucose upon hydrolysis. On the basis of its crystal structure, infrared spectrum, melting point, specific rotation, and chromatographic properties, this material has been identified as trehalose.Entities:
