The Many Models of Strigolactone Signaling
Trends in Plant Science, 2020 Strigolactones (SLs) are a class of plant hormones involved in several biological processes that are of great agricultural concern. While initiating plant-fungal symbiosis, SLs also trigger germination of parasitic plants that pose a major threat to farming. In vascular plants, SLs control shoot branching, which is linked to crop yield. SL research has

Comparative Genome‐Wide Association Studies of Metabolites and Grain‐Related Traits in Common Wheat
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The metabolome is highly diverse and the closest layer to phenotype; therefore, it is commonly regarded as a bridge between the genome and phenome in plants. Here, we performed large‐scale metabolome analysis using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) and 33 grain‐related traits in a diverse panel of natural accessions and

New genes in the strigolactone-related shoot branching pathway
, 2010 Shoot branching is controlled by the formation and subsequent outgrowth of axillary buds in the axils of leaves Axillary buds are indeterminate structures that can be arrested and await endogenous or environmental cues for outgrowth. A major breakthrough

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families
Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

The role of strigolactone and auxin in the regulation of shoot branching [PDF]
, 2020 Shoot branching is an essential ecological and agronomical trait regulated by the complex interaction of many signals, of which phytohormones are among the main actors.

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.

New Strigolactone Mimics as Exogenous Signals for Rhizosphere Organisms
, 2017 The importance of strigolactones in plant biology prompted us to synthesize simplified strigolactone mimics effective as exogenous signals for rhizosphere organisms.
