...Attempts to increase cytokinin levels by constitutive overexpression of bacterial isopentenyl transferases in whole plants resulted in no striking morphological effects because the plant may compensate for elevated biosynthesis by increasing the conjugation and degradation of the hormone (Medford et al., 1989; Smigocki, 1991; Mok and Mok, 2001a)....

...Ectopic expression and overexpression of cytokinin biosynthetic genes have also demonstrated that elevated levels of cytokinin can release apical dominance, reduce root development, delay senescence, and enhance shoot regeneration in cultured tissues (Medford et al., 1989; Smigocki, 1991; Li et al., 1992; Gan and Amasino, 1995; Sa et al., 2001; Zubko et al., 2002)....

...…has been linked to fundamental processes in plant growth and development, including the regulation of cell division, and altering endogenous cytokinin levels can have dramatic consequences on plant development and morphology (Miller et al., 1955, 1956; Medford et al., 1989; Werner et al., 2001)....
