Here, we report a synthesis and structure-activity relationship study of novel urea derivatives concerning their CKX inhibitory activity. The most active compounds showed sub-nanomolar IC50 values with maize ZmCKX1, the lowest value yet documented. Other CKX isoforms of maize and Arabidopsis were also inhibited very effectively. The binding mode of four compounds was characterized based on high-resolution crystal complex structures. Using the soil nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, and human skin fibroblasts, key CKX inhibitors with low toxicity were identified. These compounds enhanced the shoot regeneration of Lobelia, Drosera, and Plectranthus, as well as the growth of Arabidopsis and Brassica napus. At the same time, a key compound (identified as 82) activated a cytokinin primary response gene, ARR5:GUS, and a cytokinin sensor, TCSv2:GUS, without activating the Arabidopsis cytokinin receptors AHK3 and AHK4. This strongly implies that the effect of compound 82 is due to the up-regulation of cytokinin signalling. Overall, this study identifies highly effective and easily prepared CKX inhibitors with a low risk of environmental toxicity for further investigation of their potential in agriculture and biotechnology. © The Author(s) 202414aAGRICULTURE14aARABIDOPSIS14aBIOSTIMULANT14aBIOTECHNOLOGY14aCKX INHIBITOR14aCYTOKININ14aCYTOKININ OXIDASE/DEHYDROGENASE14aDIPHENYLUREA14aNUTRIENT USE EFFICIENCY14aOILSEED RAPE12aNisler J.12aKlimeš P.12aKon?itíková R.12aKadlecová A.12aVoller J.12aChalaki M.12aKarampelias M.12aMurvanidze N.12aWerbrouck S.P.O.12aKope?ný D.12aHavlí?ek L.12aDe Diego N.12aBriozzo P.12aMoréra S.12aZalabák D.12aSpíchal L.40uhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1Swf68ZqiP0Xtrhg9UvWv6DS-h2zefvwy/view?usp=drivesdkzPara ver el documento ingresa a Google con tu cuenta @cicy.edu.mx250602s9999 xx |||||s2 |||| ||und|d
