TLDR
The high cytokinin activity in the endosperm at early stages indicates that it may act as a supplier of cytokinins to the embryo during these periods, and the possible significance of these findings is discussed.

Transcriptomic analysis of developing embryos of apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.)

TL;DR: This work is the first reported application of next-generation sequencing techniques for transcriptome analysis of apricot embryo development and the comprehensive set of transcript sequences generated in this study may serve as additional molecular resources for the development of Apricot functional genomics.

Cytokinins and in vitro development of Phaseolus coccineus embryos

A. Bennici, +1 more
- 01 Oct 1979 - 
TL;DR: More developed embryos were scarcely sensitive to the presence in the culture medium of either Z or Zr at any concentration, and growth was clearly favored by concentrations of Z from 10-8 M to 10-5 M, lower concentrations having no effect.

Cytokinin Levels and Embryo Abortion in Interspecific Phaseolus Crosses

TL;DR: The possibility is considered that abortion in the hybrid may be associated with failure by the endosperm to provide cytokinin-like compounds to the embryo, and the role of cytokinins in controlling the activity of the embryo suspensor cells is discussed.

Absence of cytokinin biosynthesis in pea seeds developing in vitro

TL;DR: Cytokinin levels were determined in seeds and walls of pea pods developing in vitro or on the plant, and cytokinin synthesis in seeds or walls in vitro could not be established.

The Cytokinin Content of Aseptically Cultured Pea Fruits

TL;DR: No evidence could be found in the present investigation that young pea seeds actually synthesize cytokinins, but during the entire experimental period the seeds contained higher levels of cytokinin than the pod walls, suggesting that the seeds remained the major sink for nutrients.
