PI-55 is a specific cytokinin receptor inhibitor. PI-55 is structurally related to 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and was shown to inhibit competitively BAP binding on Arabidopsis-specific receptors CRE1/AHK4 and AHK3. PI-55 inhibits cytokinins induced haustorium formation and increased parasite aggressiveness[1].
