Applications
Used for shoot induction and proliferation
In some plants, kinetin can help break bud dormancy.
Kinetin helps maintain the health and viability of plant tissues during long-term culture by promoting cell division and delaying senescence.
Kinetin is often used in combination with auxin to create a hormonal balance that optimizes root and shoot development
