Abstract
A cytokinin bioassay based on bud formation in 10-cell-long caulonema filaments of Funaria hygrometrica is described. The test has high specificity and sensitivity; is completed in 2 days; exhibits linearity between cytokinin concentration in the medium and bud number; and no buds are formed in the absence of a cytokinin.Keywords
