Abstract 
AHPARR phosphorelay signaling circuitry, which is initiated by the cytokinin-receptor histidine protein kinases. In the hope of finding components (or genes) that function downstream of the cytokinin-mediated HisAsp phosphorelay signaling circuitry, we carried out genome-wide microarray analyses. To this end, we took a combinatorial microarray strategy by employing not only wild-type plants, but also certain transgenic lines in which the cytokinin-mediated HisAsp phosphorelay signaling circuitry has been genetically manipulated. These transgenic lines employed were ARR21-overexpressing and ARR22-overexpressing plants, each of which exhibits a characteristic phenotype with regard to the cytokinin-mediated HisAsp phosphorelay. The results of extensive microarray analyses with these plants allowed us to systematically identify a certain number of genes that were upregulated at the level of transcription in response to cytokinin directly or indirectly. Among them, some representatives were further examined in wild-type plants to support the idea that certain genes encoding transcription factors are rapidly and specifically induced at the level of transcription by cytokinin in a manner similar to that of the type-A ARR genes, which are the hallmarks of the HisAsp phosphorelay signaling circuitry. Several interesting transcription factors were thus identified as such cytokinin-responsive ones, including those belonging to AP2/EREBP-family, MYB-family, GATA-family, or bHLH-family. Including these, the presented list of cytokinin-upregulated (214) genes will provide us with valuable bases for understanding the HisAsp phosphorelay in Arabidopsis thaliana.
