Abstract

âº Plastid-localized Zm-p60.1 was successfully retargeted to the vacuole. âº Plants expressing Zm-p60.1 in the vacuole cannot store zeatin-O-glucoside. âº Vacuole-localized Zm-p60.1 restores zeatin-induced root-growth inhibition. âº The vacuole is the storage organelle for zeatin-O-glucoside. âº Zm-p60.1 is a robust probe for cytokinin metabolism in planta.
