Cytokinins are a class of plant hormones that play a crucial role in regulating cell division, differentiation, and various aspects of plant growth and development. They are primarily involved in promoting cell proliferation, delaying leaf senescence, enhancing nutrient mobilization, and stimulating shoot formation, making them highly significant in agricultural applications aimed at improving crop yield and quality. One of the primary ways cytokinins enhance crop productivity is by stimulating shoot proliferation and branching. When applied exogenously to crops, cytokinins encourage the growth of lateral buds, leading to a bushier plant structure with an increased number of branches. This, in turn, allows for more flowering sites and fruiting structures, thereby directly contributing to higher yields. For instance, in crops like
