Abstract
A critical element in understanding the physiological role of cytokinins is the knowledge of how plants control their cytokinin levels. Therefore, we need to know the pathway(s) and site(s) of cytokinin synthesis, the metabolic fate of cytokinins, and the biochemical mechanisms controlling their biosynthesis and degradation.
