Expression profiles of cytokinin biosynthesis- and metabolism-related genes and two-component elements following BA treatment. Colors indicate the expression values scaled to the standard deviations and centered at the control intensity level (Z-score). Red indicates increased expression and green indicates decreased expression relative to the control condition. Gene expression at time points labeled with an asterisk on the map showed significantly differential expression between treated and control inflorescence meristems (p <0.05), whereas the remaining genes were considered to not respond to BA treatment (p >0.05).
