Application

Trans-Zeatin-riboside has been used to treat the crystals, retrieved from the capillaries for crystallization. It has also been used as a supplement in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium to form shoot induction medium.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Trans-zeatin-riboside is a kind of cytokinin precursor, which is an important long-distance signalling form in xylem vessels. It serves as an inhibitory factor in root xylem sap by negatively modulating adventitious root formation.
