TLDR
It has been known for many decades that auxin inhibits the activation of axillary buds, and hence shoot branching, while cytokinin has the opposite effect as mentioned in this paper. But the modes of action of these two hormones in branching control is still a matter of debate, and their mechanisms of interaction are equally unresolved.

Diverse branching forms regulated by a core auxin transport mechanism in plants

TL;DR: In this article , a combination of surgical and pharmacological treatments and PIN expression analyses in the lycophyte Selaginella kraussiana was used to identify PIN-mediated auxin transport as the ancestral mechanism for branching within vascular plants.

The PIN auxin efflux facilitator network controls growth and patterning in Arabidopsis roots

TL;DR: This work shows that five PIN genes collectively control auxin distribution to regulate cell division and cell expansion in the primary root and reveals an interaction network of auxin transport facilitators and root fate determinants that control patterning and growth of the root primordium.

Cytokinin-Deficient Transgenic Arabidopsis Plants Show Multiple Developmental Alterations Indicating Opposite Functions of Cytokinins in the Regulation of Shoot and Root Meristem Activity

TL;DR: The results are consistent with the hypothesis that cytokinins have central, but opposite, regulatory functions in root and shoot meristems and indicate that a fine-tuned control of catabolism plays an important role in ensuring the proper regulation of cytokinin functions.

The evolution of apical dominance in maize

TL;DR: The cloned teosinte branched1 (tb1) gene encodes a protein with homology to the cycloidea gene of snapdragon and suggests that tb1 acts both to repress the growth of axillary organs and to enable the formation of female inflorescences.

A Role for Flavin Monooxygenase-Like Enzymes in Auxin Biosynthesis

TL;DR: Results from tryptophan analog feeding experiments and biochemical assays indicate that YUCCA catalyzes hydroxylation of the amino group of tryptamine, a rate-limiting step in tryptophile-dependent auxin biosynthesis.
