Cytokinin nucleotides are normal constituents of transfer RNAs. The formation of free cytokinins might be connected with the normal hydrolysis rate of those RNAs. To get an impression about the cytokinin production by this pathway, the half‐life of sRNA from Lactobacillus acidophilus grown in the logarithmic and in the stationary phases has been estimated. At the generation cycle of two hours the half‐life of sRNA is 3 to 4 hours during the logarithmic phase, and 10 to 12 hours during the stationary phase.
