Cytokinin has been linked to the activation of a Cdc25- like phosphatase, whose role is to remove an inhibitory phosphate group from the Cdc2 kinase.  Cytokinins elevate the expression of the CYCD3 gene, which encodes a D-type cyclin

Cytokinin binds to the CRE1 receptors to initiate a response that culminates in the elevation of transcription of the type- BARRs/ type- A ARRs.

The isopentenyltransferase gene (IPT) that encodes a rate limiting enzyme in cytokinin biosynthesis, under the control of a water-deficit responsive and maturation specific promoter PSARK was introduced into cotton and the performance of the PSARK::IPT transgenic cotton plants was analyzed in the greenhouse and growth chamber conditions. 

The data indicate that PSARK::IPT-transgenic cotton plants displayed delayed senescence under water deficit conditions in the greenhouse.
