Contrary to Arabidopsis receptors, there is higher

sensitivity to cZ and DHZ at least on some maize receptors

CKX as a transgene

Constitutive overexpression of CKX causes cytokinin-deficient phenotype

Main function of CKs on plant differentiation proved together with opposite role on root and shoot development
