Reconstruction of tRNAPhe molecules from the fragments by linkage with T-4 RNA ligase in double-stranded regions.

abstract：:The plant hormone cytokinin plays a major role in regulating plant growth and development. Here we generated cytokinin-reduction Arabidopsis plants by overexpressing a heterologous cytokinin oxidase gene DSCKX1 from Dendrobium orchid. These transgenic plants exhibited reduced biomass, rapid root growth, decreased abil...
