Abstract excerpt
Cytokinin response factor 6 (CRF6) is an Arabidopsis AP2/ERF transcription factor which is transcriptionally induced by cytokinin. Cytokinin is known to delay leaf senescence in wild-type (WT) plants, for example in dark-incubated detached leaves. This response is mediated by the cytokinin receptor Arabidopsis histidine kinase receptor 3 (AHK3). Similar to ahk3 mutants, crf6 leaves show decreased sensitivity to...
