The expression of the CR20 gene responded strongly to exogenous cytokinins in excised cotyledons of cucumber, and the level of expression changed in association with phenomena that have been to postulated to involve cytokinins, such as aging of leaves, greening, and responses to wounding. The level of the CR20 transcript decreased during the early phase of greening and soon after the wounding of cotyledons. The levels were much lower in young leaves than in mature or senescent leaves. Cytokinins are thought to control greening and aging of leaves and to mediate responses to wounding. (Teramoto et al., 1996) The CR20 RNA is a product of a cytokinin responsive gene that is repressed in response to cytokinins (plant hormones) or stress conditions and was first isolated from cucumber and later reported in several other plant species.
