A Petunia homeodomain-leucine zipper protein, PhHD-Zip, plays an important role in flower senescence. [PDF]
Flower senescence is initiated by developmental and environmental signals, and regulated by gene transcription. A homeodomain-leucine zipper transcription factor, PhHD-Zip, is up-regulated during petunia flower senescence. Virus-induced gene silencing of

Summary Cytokinins promote shoot development, delay leaf senescence, contribute to stress and pathogen responses, and serve as important signals to integrate growth rates throughout the plant. The identification of genes controlling CK synthesis and signaling has allowed us to understand the molecular basis for some of these effects with

Ethylene-independent promotion of photomorphogenesis in the dark by cytokinin requires COP1 and the CDD complex [PDF]
The transition of skotomorphogenesis to photomorphogenesis is induced by the perception of light, and is characterized by the inhibition of hypocotyl elongation and opening of cotyledons.

Virulent strains of Rhodococcus fascians cause a range of disease symptoms, many of which can be mimicked by application of cytokinin. Both virulent and avirulent strains produce a complex of cytokinins, most of which can be derived from tRNA degradation.

In vitro shoot regeneration from seedling explants in Brassica vegetables: Red cabbage, broccoli, Savoy cabbage and cauliflower [PDF]
Brassica oleracea varieties (red cabbage, broccoli, Savoy cabbage and cauliflower) were tested for their ability to regenerate shoots in vitro. Cotyledon, hypocotyl and root explants of 7 day-old seedlings were incubated on Murashige and Skoog's (MS ...

Artificial Seed Production from Encapsulated Microshoots of Cauliflower (Brassica oleraceae var botrytis) [PDF]
A cost effective protocol for the production of cauliflower microshoots suitable for encapsulation was designed. Microshoots were encapsulated in sodium chloride matrices. The use of 2% of sodium alginate and 15 g/L of dehydrate calcium chloride produced

Low temperature is a major limiting factor for the growth and reproduction of some plant species, such as tomato. So far, few studies have been conducted on the effects of low temperature, and the mechanisms of plants’ response to this type of stress is ...

The cytokinins specifically induce formation of gametophore buds in the protonema of Ceratodon purpureus. The responsein this species is less sensitive than in Funaria hygrometrica, but is independent of light.
