Cytokinin signalling remains a central focus in plant biology due to its vital role in regulating cell division, meristem maintenance and overall plant architecture. Recent investigations have ...

The stability of [3H]zeatin riboside supplied to freshly excised tobacco pith explants was found to be inversely related to α-naphthaleneacetic acid concentration in the incubation medium. At higher ...

Biologists have discovered how cytokinin activates stem cell division in plants. The mechanism by which the plant hormone cytokinin controls cell division has been discovered -- a breakthrough that ...

The onset of sudden cold spells can threaten plant survival, especially during early growth phases. But how do plants detect ...

These discoveries are important because, as lead scientist Director Miltos Tsiantis explains, ‘It may be possible to tinker with root growth to improve crops in different environments. For example, ...

The mechanism by which the plant hormone cytokinin controls cell division has been discovered - a breakthrough that significantly improves our understanding of how plants grow. Cell division is ...
