Application

6-(γ,γ-Dimethylallylamino)purine (2iP) is a bacteria-derived riboside cytokinin used to grow plant tissues such as tobacco and soybean callus. 2iP is a precursor of the cytokinin Zeatin. 2iP has been used in Schenk and Hildebrandt medium to support in vitro propagation of microshoot cultures from shoot tips of Genista plants.
6-(γ,γ-Dimethylallylamino)purine has been used as a component of Murashige and Skoog medium for promoting tissue lignification in Acca sellowiana and as a component of SIM medium for used in regeneration assay of cotyledons.

Studies on the effect of post culture liquids of actinomycetes on cytokinin-like substances production by mycorrhizal fungi have revealed that actinomycete metabolites inhibited or stimulated the synthesis of these compounds. The results of chromatographic analyses suggest, that substances stimulating the
