Contrary to Arabidopsis receptors, there is higher
sensitivity to cZ and DHZ at least on some maize receptors

CKX relative activityCKX gene families:Arabidopsis thaliana 7 genesZea mays 13 genesOryza sativa 11 genesHordeum vulgare 11 genes
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
