Rows of cytokinin affinity for the receptors from Arabidopsis and corn

Species Receptor** Cytokinin affinity rows**
Zea mays ZmHK1 iP ≥ BA >> tZ ≥ cZ >> DZ >> Ade
Arabidopsis thaliana CRE1/AHK4 iP ≥ tZ > BA > DZ > cZ >> Ade
Zea mays ZmHK2 tZ ≥ iP > DZ > BA > cZ >> Ade
Arabidopsis thaliana AHK3 tZ > DZ > iP > cZ > BA >> Ade
Zea mays ZmHK3a iP > tZ > BA > cZ >> DZ >> Ade
Arabidopsis thaliana AHK2 iP > tZ > BA > cZ > DZ >> Ade

* Orthologous receptors are grouped pairwise.

** Cytokinins: iP – isopentenyladenine; BA – N 6 -benzyladenine; tZ – trans -zeatin; cZ – cis -zeatin; DZ – dihydrozeatin. Ade – adenine.
