Studies of de novo cytokinin biosynthesis in isopentenyltransferase (ipt)-transformed Arabidopsis thaliana, involving in vivo deuterium labeling and mass spectrometry, showed that the biosynthetic rate of zeatinriboside-5'-monophosphate was around 66-fold higher than that of isopentenyladenosine-5'-monophosphate (iPMP), the proposed primary product of the Agrobacterium ipt. [...] Key Result Double tracer analysis, using [(2)H(6)] isopentenyladenosine and deuterium oxide, provided evidence for an alternative…Expand
