The complex juvenile/maturity transition during a plant's life cycle includes growth,
reproduction, and senescence of its fundamental organs: leaves, flowers, and fruits. Growth …

Plants, as a sessile organism, rely on the endogenous regulators for the modulation of
growth and development under severe stress conditions for their survival. Plant hormones …

Cytokinins modulate a number of important developmental processes, including the last
phase of leaf development, known as senescence, which is associated with chlorophyll …

Cytokinins (CKs) regulate plant growth and development via a complex network of CK
signaling. Here, we perform functional analyses with CK-deficient plants to provide direct …

The appearance of genetically modified organisms on the food market a few years ago, and
the demand for more precise and reliable techniques to detect foreign (transgenic or …

Petal senescence is reviewed, with the main emphasis on gene expression in relation to
physiological functions. Autophagy seems to be the major mechanism for large-scale …

Benzylaminopurine (6-BA), a synthetic cytokinin compound, plays a vital role in modulating
diverse physiological processes in plants and is widely applied in agriculture. This study …

Leaf senescence is the final stage of leaf development in which the nutrients invested in the
leaf are remobilized to other parts of the plant. Whereas senescence is accompanied by a …

A survey of recent results is presented concerning the role of cytokinin degradation in plants,
which is catalyzed by cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase (CKX) enzymes. An overview of …

Cytokinins are plant hormones that can be glucosylated to form O-glucosides and N-
glucosides. The glycoconjugates are inactive and are thought to play a role in homeostasis …
