Abstract excerpt
Ove mutants in the moss Physcomitrella patens can arise from different recessive mutations. These mutants display a much larger number of buds than the wild type (wt) due to a dramatic overproduction of cytokinins (Cks), which are released into the culture medium (T.L. Wang, R. Horgan, D.J. Cove [1981] Plant Physiol 68: 735-738). The amounts of isopentenyladenine (iP) and isopentenyladenosine ([9R]iP) produced by...
