The mantled abnormality phenotype of the oil palm affects fruit development and thus jeopardizes oil yield. Cytokinins have been implicated in the development of the mantled phenotype. Endogenous cytokinin levels in the normal and mantled phenotypes were compared to determine whether levels of specific cytokinins are associated with mantling. Endogenous cytokinins were identified and quantified in in vitro cultures and inflorescences from normal and mantled oil palms. Twenty-two isoprenoid cytokinins, comprising the zeatin, dihydrozeatin, and isopentenyladenine types, were quantified. Total cytokinin levels, particularly of trans-zeatin and isopentenyladenine types, increased during the in vitro culture process, with the highest levels detected at the proliferating polyembryoid stages. The cytokinins were present mainly in their inactive 9-glucoside forms during in vitro culture. On the other hand, the predominant trans-zeatin cytokinins in inflorescences were present mainly in their ribotide forms, suggesting a metabolic pool of cytokinins for conversion to biologically active free bases or ribosides. Levels of specific cytokinins were significantly different in tissues at different stages. Mantled developed inflorescences contained higher levels of isopentenyladenine 9-glucoside compared with normal inflorescences. Mantled-derived callus tissues had higher isopentenyladenine levels but significantly lower levels of trans-zeatin 9-glucoside, dihydrozeatin riboside, and dihydrozeatin riboside 5'-monophosphate cytokinins compared with normal-derived callus. It would be of considerable interest to verify these specific cytokinin differences in more callus cultures and clones.
