Transcriptomic analysis of Sporisorium reilianum in response to the strigolactone analogue GR24
A suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) approach was used to generate cDNA libraries representing genes differentially expressed in the haploid cells of the maize head smut pathogen Sporisorium reilianum exposed to GR24, a strigolactone analogue ...

Adventitious rooting declines with the vegetative to reproductive switch and involves a changed auxin homeostasis [PDF]
Adventitious rooting, whereby roots form from non-root tissues, is critical to the forestry and horticultural industries that depend on propagating plants from cuttings. A major problem is that age of the tissue affects the ability of the cutting to form

Strigolactone Signaling in Plants
They were found to be involved in the communication between plant roots and symbiotic bacteria or fungi, but also in the interactions between roots of host plants and germinating seeds of parasitic plants. Over the years, however, it has become clear that SLs play a regulatory role in many aspects of plant growth and development.

3D modelling of branching in plants [PDF]
Shoot branching is a key determinant of overall aboveground plant form. During plant development, the number of branches formed strongly influences the amount of light absorbed by the plant, and thus the plant’s competitive strength in terms of light ...

Effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi inoculation on enzymatic activity and zinc uptake under direct seeded rice system [PDF]
The application of treatment T3 (Glomus mosseae + 100 % RDF NK) produced significantly more root volume by 72.60 %, 17.80 %, 12.25 %, 14.13 % over the application of treatment T1 (Control), treatment T5 (Glomus coronatum+ 100 % RDF NK), T6 ...

ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZA – PARTNER IN COMMUNICATION
Arbuscular mycorrhiza is one of the most common type of mycorrhiza in plant kingdom. Process of plant root colonization by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi is consisted of four phases: presymbiotic phase, phase of contact and hyphae penetration to the roots,
