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.

Regulation of plant growth by cytokinin

TL;DR: It is suggested that cytokinins are an important regulatory factor of plant meristem activity and morphogenesis, with opposing roles in shoots and roots.

Cytokinin Activation of Arabidopsis Cell Division Through a D-Type Cyclin

TL;DR: Results suggest that cytokinin activates Arabidopsis cell division through induction of CycD3 at the G1-S cell cycle phase transition.
Journal ArticleDOI

In planta functions of the Arabidopsis cytokinin receptor family

TL;DR: Results confirm that cytokinins are a pivotal class of plant growth regulators but provide no evidence that cytkinins are required for the processes of gametogenesis and embryogenesis.

Expression of cytokinin biosynthetic isopentenyltransferase genes in Arabidopsis: tissue specificity and regulation by auxin, cytokinin, and nitrate.

TL;DR: The rate-limiting step of cytokinin biosynthesis in Arabidopsis thaliana Heynh is catalyzed by ATP/ADP isopentenyltransferases, and by their homologs AtIPT3, atIPT5, AtipT6, At IPT7, and AtIPt8, and they were expressed ubiquitously, with highest expression in proliferating tissues.

Tobacco BY-2 Cell Line as the “HeLa” Cell in the Cell Biology of Higher Plants

TL;DR: The preparation of protoplasts from TBY-2 cells, from which the isolation of organelles is easy, has been established and using the synchrony system, the change in the cell cycle progression of TBY -2 cells successfully followed thechange in cytoskeletons.

Plant hormones : physiology, biochemistry and molecular biology

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the role of hormones in plant growth, development, and senescence, and the mechanism of action of auxin and cytokinin in prokaryotes, as well as other aspects of hormone synthesis and action.

Aphidicolin Prevents Mitotic Cell Division by Interfering With the Activity of DNA Polymerase-Alpha

TL;DR: Evidence is reported that prevention of cell division by aphidicolin in sea urchin embryos is due to selective inhibition of DNA polymerase-α activity, which implies a functional role for this polymerase activity during replication of DNA.

Inhibition of Cyclin‐Dependent Kinases by Purine Analogues

TL;DR: Through its unique selectivity olomoucine provides an anti-mitotic reagent that may preferentially inhibit certain steps of the cell cycle and inhibits the licensing factor, an essential replication factor ensuring that DNA is replicated only once in each cell cycle.
