Novel cytokinin derivatives do not show negative effects on root growth and proliferation in submicromolar range.
<h4>Background</h4>When applied to a nutrition solution or agar media, the non-substituted aromatic cytokinins caused thickening and shortening of the primary root, had an inhibitory effect on lateral root branching, and even showed some negative effects on development of the aerial part...
