Abstract: The two brassinosteroids contained in the pollen of pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata Duch.) were investigated. The bioactive compounds from the purified extract were identified by GC-MS as brassinolide and castasterone. The content of brassinolide and castasterone were estimated to be 36 µg kg-1 and 112 µg kg-1 (dry weight) respectively. This study provides the first evidence for the occurrence of brassinolide and castasterone in the pollen of pumpkin.
