The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Phloem loading and unloading of sugars and amino acids (2003, unknown): “Cytokinins, imported through the transpiration stream, are the strongest candidates for sink signals transmitted to source leaves to integrate sink demand (Roitsch & Ehneβ 2000) with phloem loading (Patrick 1987).”
Die and let live: leaf senescence contributes to plant survival under drought stress. (2004, background): “Cytokinins are known to play a major role in the regulation of source-to-sink transitions (Roitsch 2000).”
Effects of the exogenous application of auxin and cytokinin on carbohydrate accumulation in grains of rice under salt stress (2011, background): “It has been proposed that specific PGRs are specifically involved in regulating sink strength, photosynthate partitioning and phloem unloading (Roitsch and Ehneß 2000).”
Hormonal Regulation of Tomato Fruit Development: A Molecular Perspective (2005, background): “Cytokinins are generally associated with increasing sink strength and delaying senescence (Brenner and Cheikh 1995; Roitsch and Ehneß 2000; Balibrea Lara and others 2004).”
Metabolism and Plant Hormone Action During Clubroot Disease (2009, background): “…be elucidated but may well be associated with increased cytokinin concentration in infected tissues (Devos and others 2005; Siemens and others 2006) as cytokinins enhance metabolic sinks and lead to increased starch synthesis (Roitsch and Ehneß 2000; Devos and others 2006; Siemens and others 2006).”
