Root enhancement in cytokinin-deficient oilseed rape causes leaf mineral enrichment, increases the chlorophyll concentration under nutrient limitation and enhances the phytoremediation capacity [PDF]
Background Cytokinin is a negative regulator of root growth, and a reduction of the cytokinin content or signalling causes the formation a larger root system in model plants, improves their growth under drought and nutrient limitation and causes ...

Induction of Cytokinin-Independent Tobacco Tissues by Substituted Fluorenes [PDF]
Two morphactins and three aminofluorenes initiated the formation of compact tissue nodules in hormone-dependent tobacco callus cultures. These nodules, upon subculture, behaved like partially transformed plant tumors.

Characterization of CHARK, an unusual cytokinin receptor of rice
The signal transduction of the plant hormone cytokinin is mediated by a His-to-Asp phosphorelay. The canonical cytokinin receptor consists of an extra cytoplasmic hormone binding domain named cyclase/histidine kinase associated sensory extracellular ...

RETRACTED: Cytokinin and abiotic stress tolerance -What has been accomplished and the way forward?
More than a half-century has passed since it was discovered that phytohormone cytokinin (CK) is essential to drive cytokinesis and proliferation in plant tissue culture.

Redundant and Non-redundant Functions of the AHK Cytokinin Receptors During Gynoecium Development
The phytohormone cytokinin is crucial for plant growth and development. The site of action of cytokinin in the plant is dependent on the expression of the cytokinin receptors.

Cytokinin response factors regulate PIN-FORMED auxin transporters [PDF]
Auxin and cytokinin are key endogenous regulators of plant development. Although cytokinin-mediated modulation of auxin distribution is a developmentally crucial hormonal interaction, its molecular basis is largely unknown.

Pathogenesis-related class 10 (PR-10) proteins play a role in plant growth and development, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. Here, we isolated a salt-induced PR-10 gene from the halophyte Halostachys caspica and named it HcPR10 ...

Two-component elements mediate interactions between cytokinin and salicylic acid in plant immunity. [PDF]
Recent studies have revealed an important role for hormones in plant immunity. We are now beginning to understand the contribution of crosstalk among different hormone signaling networks to the outcome of plant-pathogen interactions. Cytokinins are plant
