Cytokinin proved to be a controlling factor in sieve tube regeneration around wounded collateral bundles in an in vivo system in which the endogenous cytokinin level had been minimized. Both kinetin and zeatin were applied in aqueous solution to the bases of excised, mature internodes of Coleus blumei Benth. that had an active vascular cambium. Each internode also received indoleacetic acid (IAA) in lanolin at its apical end. Under either low (0.1% w/w) or high (1.0% w/w) auxin concentrations, the control internodes (without exogenous cytokinin) exhibited small amounts of sieve tube regeneration. At appropriate concentrations, both kinetin and zeatin induced a significant increase in sieve tube regeneration around the wound. However, the highest concentration of kinetin tested (50 mug/mL) completely inhibited this process. Kinetin was the most effective with high auxin (1.0% IAA), while zeatin was the most effective with low auxin level (0.1% IAA). Kinetin and zeatin showed the strongest promotive effect at 10 mug/mL and 20 mug/mL, respectively. Both cytokinins also induced supplementary phloem regeneration further from the wound surface. In addition to their effects on vascular tissue regeneration, both cytokinins promoted callose production. This was most evident on the sieve plates of the regenerated sieve tube members and on the walls of the parenchyma cells around the wound. The largest deposits of callose were found in both regenerated sieve tube members and parenchyma cells at the highest cytokinin concentration tested (50 mug/mL). The possible role of cytokinin in controlling callose accumulation in the sieve tubes during autumn is discussed.
