Brassinosteroids [PDF]

The Plant Cell, 2010
Summary Brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroid hormones ubiquitously found in plants but first purified from Brassica. BRs contribute to growth, vascular differentiation, reproductive development, and stress responses. In the 1990s BR biosynthesis and response mutants were identified, allowing the complete pathway from synthesis to response ...

Exogenous brassinosteroids promotes root growth, enhances stress tolerance, and increases yield in maize

Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2022
Brassinosteroids (BRs) regulate of maize (Zea mays L.) growth, but the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we used a multi-disciplinary approach to determine how BRs regulate maize morphology and physiology during development ...

The combined formulation of brassinolide and pyraclostrobin increases biomass and seed yield by improving photosynthetic capacity in Arabidopsis thaliana

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
In the context of global food crisis, applying the phytohormone-brassinosteroids (BRs) in combination with the fungicide-pyraclostrobin (Pyr) was beneficial for plant quality and productivity in several field trials.

Diurnal regulation of the brassinosteroid-biosynthetic CPD gene in Arabidopsis [PDF]

, 2006
Plant steroid hormones, brassinosteroids (BRs), are essential for normal photomorphogenesis. However, the mechanism by which light controls physiological functions via BRs is not well understood.

Application of brassinosteroids for improving crop production

, 2022
Modern crop production uses a large suite of agricultural agents that increases plant productivity both under optimal growth and stress conditions. Most of these agents are of artificial origin; many of them are toxic and are pollutants of agricultural ...

Brassinosteroid overproduction improves lignocellulose quantity and quality to maximize bioethanol yield under green-like biomass process in transgenic poplar

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
Background As a leading biomass feedstock, poplar plants provide enormous lignocellulose resource convertible for biofuels and bio-chemicals. However, lignocellulose recalcitrance particularly in wood plants, basically causes a costly bioethanol ...
