The potential of strigolactones to shift competitive dynamics among two Rhizophagus irregularis strains [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Strigolactones are phytohormones that influence arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) spore germination, pre-symbiotic hyphal branching, and metabolic rates. Historically, strigolactone effects have been tested on single AMF strains.

Effects of exogenous SLs on growth and physiological characteristics of flue-cured tobacco seedlings under different degrees of drought stress [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
BackgroundDrought stress severely affects global crop yields, reduces water availability, and hinders growth. Strigolactones can alleviate damage caused by various abiotic stresses in plants; however, limited research has been conducted on their ability ...

Nitric Oxide-Mediated Maize Root Apex Responses to Nitrate are Regulated by Auxin and Strigolactones [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Nitrate (NO3-) is a key element for crop production but its levels in agricultural soils are limited. Plants have developed mechanisms to cope with these NO3- fluctuations based on sensing nitrate at the root apex.

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Characterization of the D27 Gene Family of Capsicum annuum L. [PDF]

open access: yesPlants
As a crucial member of the gene family involved in the biosynthesis of strigolactones, D27 plays an important regulatory role in plant branching and root development, which is essential for field management and yield increase in peppers (Capsicum annuum ...

Strigolactones GR-24 and Nijmegen Applications Result in Reduced Susceptibility of Tobacco and Grapevine Plantlets to Botrytis cinerea Infection

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Priming agents are plant defence-inducing compounds which can prompt a state of protection but may also aid in plant growth and interactions with beneficial microbes.

A multifaceted assessment of strigolactone GR24 and its derivatives: from anticancer and antidiabetic activities to antioxidant capacity and beyond

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
Background: Strigolactones are signaling molecules produced by plants, the main functions are the intracorporeal control of plant development and plant growth. GR24 strigolactone is one of the synthetic strigolactones and due to its universality and easy

A mathematical model for strigolactone biosynthesis in plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Strigolactones mediate plant development, trigger symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, are abundant in 80% of the plant kingdom and help plants gain resistance to environmental stressors. They also induce germination of parasitic plant seeds that

Broomrape weeds. Underground mechanisms of parasitism and associated strategies for their control: a review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
SPE & AgrosupPôle GESTADBroomrapes are plant-parasitic weeds which constitute one of the most difficult-to-control of all biotic constraints that affect crops in Mediterranean, central and eastern Europe, and Asia.

Emerging connections between small RNAs and phytohormones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Small RNAs (sRNAs), mainly including miRNAs and siRNAs, are ubiquitous in eukaryotes. sRNAs mostly negatively regulate gene expression via (post-)transcriptional gene silencing through DNA methylation, mRNA cleavage, or translation inhibition.

Strigolactones Control Root System Architecture and Tip Anatomy in Solanum lycopersicum L. Plants under P Starvation

open access: yesPlants, 2020
The hormones strigolactones accumulate in plant roots under phosphorus (P) shortage, inducing variations in plant phenotype. In this study, we aimed at understanding whether strigolactones control morphological and anatomical changes in tomato (Solanum ...
