  • Cytokinin biosynthesis is regulated by nitrogen.
  • Which of the following correctly describes the relationship between cytokinins and auxins?

  • Cytokinins inhibit branching in the shoot.
  • Cytokinins have a positive impact on cell proliferation in the shoot at low concentrations. (correct)
  • Cytokinins maintain stem cell activity at the root apical meristem.
