Indole-3-methanol - a metabolite of indole-3-acetic acid in pea seedlings

The degradation of indole-3-acetic acid was investigated in etiolated pea shoots ; the study was limited to indolic metabolites. The products formed were fractionated by column chromatography and identified by thin-layer chromatography and chemical methods. The pathway of indole-3-acetic acid degradation involving indole-3-aldehyde was found to be more significant than stated in the literature, and indole-3-methanol was established as the major indolic metabolite.
