Cis Ziatin (1-10000 nM) can effectively inhibit the elongation of primary roots in Oryza sativa (rice) seedlings.
Cis Ziatin (100 nM; 15-60 min) can rapidly upregulate the expression of cytokinin responsive genes OsRR1, OsRR2, OsRR6, and OsRR9/10 in the roots of Oryza sativa (rice) seedlings within 15 minutes, demonstrating short-term cytokinin activity.
Cis Ziatin can be catalyzed by recombinant Oryza sativa cZOGT1, cZOGT2, and cZOGT3 for O-glycosylation in vitro.
