From plant hormones to human health: progress and challenges in strigolactone biosynthetic structural diversity and antitumor effects [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Strigolactones are plant growth regulatory compounds produced by plants through the breakdown of carotenoid pigments. The continued identification of key strigolactone biosynthetic enzymes and pathway branches, along with increasing evidence that ...

A BRC1-modulated switch in auxin efflux accounts for the competition between Arabidopsis axillary buds. [PDF]

PLoS Biology
As part of their modular development, plants continuously adapt their shoot branching architecture according to environmental conditions. This occurs by regulating the activity of axillary buds established in each leaf axil.

A Taylor-Made Design of Phenoxyfuranone-Type Strigolactone Mimic

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Strigolactones are a class of plant hormones that inhibit axillary bud outgrowth and are released from plant roots to act as a rhizosphere communication signal.

GR24, A Synthetic Strigolactone Analog, and Light Affect the Organization of Cortical Microtubules in Arabidopsis Hypocotyl Cells

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Strigolactones are plant hormones regulating cytoskeleton-mediated developmental events in roots, such as lateral root formation and elongation of root hairs and hypocotyls.

Identification of new potential downstream transcriptional targets of the strigolactone pathway including glucosinolate biosynthesis

Plant Direct, 2023
Strigolactones regulate shoot branching and many aspects of plant growth, development, and allelopathy. Strigolactones are often discussed alongside auxin because they work together to inhibit shoot branching.

Characterization of MORE AXILLARY GROWTH genes in Populus. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Strigolactones are a new class of plant hormones that play a key role in regulating shoot branching. Studies of branching mutants in Arabidopsis, pea, rice and petunia have identified several key genes involved in strigolactone biosynthesis or signaling ...

Physiological mechanism of strigolactone enhancing tolerance to low light stress in cucumber seedlings

BMC Plant Biology, 2022
Strigolactone is a newly discovered type of plant hormone that has multiple roles in modulating plant responses to abiotic stress. Herein, we aimed to investigate the effects of exogenous GR24 (a synthetic analogue of strigolactone) on plant growth ...

Effects of strigolactone and abscisic acid on the quality and antioxidant activity of grapes (Vitis vinifera L.) and wines

Food Chemistry: X, 2022
This study employed various methods, including recording of phenological phenomena and analysis of physicochemical indicators, to scrutinize effects of strigolactone and abscisic acid on indicators of ripeness, phenolic compounds, and antioxidant ...

Silencing of MsD14 Resulted in Enhanced Forage Biomass through Increasing Shoot Branching in Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.)

Plants, 2022
Branching is one of the key determinants of plant architecture that dramatically affects crop yield. As alfalfa is the most important forage crop, understanding the genetic basis of branching in this plant can facilitate breeding for a high biomass yield.

CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Mutagenesis of Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenase (CCD) Genes in Sorghum Alters Strigolactone Biosynthesis and Plant Biotic Interactions

Phytobiomes Journal, 2023
Strigolactones are a group of small molecules that play critical roles in plant developmental processes and root biotic interactions. Strigolactones are agronomically important due to their role as a signal for the germination of a parasitic weed (Striga
