Structural diversity in the strigolactones [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2018
Strigolactones (SLs) are a class of signalling molecules secreted by the roots of plants into the rhizosphere. On the one hand, they serve as the signal for recruiting arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi which have a symbiotic relationship with plants. On the other hand, they are also host detection signals for the non-symbiotic, pathogenic, root parasitic ...

Novel Strigolactone Mimics That Modulate Photosynthesis and Biomass Accumulation in Chlorella sorokiniana

Molecules, 2023
In terrestrial plants, strigolactones act as multifunctional endo- and exo-signals. On microalgae, the strigolactones determine akin effects: induce symbiosis formation with fungi and bacteria and enhance photosynthesis efficiency and accumulation of ...

Effects of exogenous strigolactone on growth, dry matter accumulation, and yield of tissue-cultured ginger

Plant Production Science, 2023
Ginger tissue culture seedlings can reduce the incidence of soil-borne diseases. However, they have several branches, small ginger bulbs, and slow seed recovery.

Strigolactone can promote or inhibit shoot branching by triggering rapid depletion of the auxin efflux protein PIN1 from the plasma membrane. [PDF]

PLoS Biology, 2013
Plants continuously extend their root and shoot systems through the action of meristems at their growing tips. By regulating which meristems are active, plants adjust their body plans to suit local environmental conditions.

Effect of Priming on Germination Traits and Antioxidant Enzymes of Pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L.) Seeds with Different Vigor under Drought Stress

Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2023
Drought stress is a critical environmental stress that limits the productivity and sustainability of agriculture in arid and semi-arid regions by reducing the germination rate and delaying the start of germination and seedling establishment.

From carotenoids to strigolactones [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2017
Strigolactones are phytohormones that regulate various plant developmental and adaptation processes. When released into soil, strigolactones act as chemical signals, attracting symbiotic arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and inducing seed germination in root-parasitic weeds.

Strigolactone (GR24) Application Positively Regulates Photosynthetic Attributes, Stress-Related Metabolites and Antioxidant Enzymatic Activities of Ornamental Sunflower (Helianthus annuus cv. Vincent’s Choice) under Salinity Stress

Agriculture, 2022
Strigolactones, a new group of phytohormones, are reported to improve plant tolerance to multiple abiotic stresses. A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of synthetic strigolactone (GR24 at 0.001, 0.01 and 0.1 mg L−1) application on ...

Strigolactone biosynthesis and perception [PDF]

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2014
Strigolactones (SLs) are plant hormones that regulate shoot branching as well as known as root-derived signals for parasitic and symbiotic interactions. Since the first discovery of a naturally occurring SL, strigol, more than 40 years ago, the biosynthetic pathway has remained elusive.

The Potential of the Synthetic Strigolactone Analogue GR24 for the Maintenance of Photosynthesis and Yield in Winter Wheat under Drought: Investigations on the Mechanisms of Action and Delivery Modes

Plants, 2021
Strigolactones (SLs) have been implicated in many plant biological and physiological processes, including the responses to abiotic stresses such as drought, in concert with other phytohormones.

Maize resistance to witchweed through changes in strigolactone biosynthesis [PDF]

, 2023
Maize (Zea mays) is a major staple crop in Africa, where its yield and the livelihood of millions are compromised by the parasitic witchweed Striga. Germination of Striga is induced by strigolactones exuded from maize roots into the rhizosphere.
