ABSTRACT In natural environments, plants compete with neighbouring plants for resources such as light, water and nutrients. To detect neighbours, plants have evolved mechanisms that are poorly understood at the molecular‐genetic level. This study examined the impact of competition on the growth and reproductive success of Arabidopsis thaliana grown in ...

Changes in the allocation of endogenous strigolactone improve plant biomass production on phosphate-poor soils. [PDF]
Strigolactones (SLs) are carotenoid-derived phytohormones shaping plant architecture and inducing the symbiosis with endomycorrhizal fungi. In Petunia hybrida, SL transport within the plant and towards the rhizosphere is driven by the ABCG-class protein ...

UBP12 and UBP13 negatively regulate the activity of the ubiquitin-dependent peptidases DA1, DAR1 and DAR2 [PDF]
Protein ubiquitination is a very diverse post-translational modification leading to protein degradation or delocalization, or altering protein activity. In Arabidopsis thaliana, two E3 ligases, BIG BROTHER (BB) and DA2, activate the latent peptidases DA1,

Spatial regulation of strigolactone function [PDF]
Strigolactones are plant hormones that control many aspects of plant development and environmental responses. Despite recent and rapid progress in the biochemical and molecular understanding of strigolactone biosynthesis, transport, and signaling, our knowledge about where strigolactones are produced and where they act is fragmented. In this review, we

Arbuscular mycorrhiza responsiveness varies strongly among Petunia species and RILs, representing a genetically determined trait with breeding potential that is nonetheless strongly modulated by environmental conditions. Abstract Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi enhance plant nutrition and stress tolerance, yet their agricultural use remains limited ...

Bambara groundnuts (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdc) provide essential proteins for African farmers, but the yield is largely affected by Alectra vogelii infestation, particularly on nutrient-depleted soils.

Shoot branching, determining plant architecture and crop yield, is critically controlled by strigolactones (SLs). However, how SLs inhibit shoot branching after its perception by the receptor complex remains largely obscure.

We generated a compound by chemical modification that can efficiently rescue growth without decreasing the immune response of the chs3‐2D autoimmune mutants, thus chemically uncoupling its growth–defence trade‐off. Abstract Plant development in many species including Arabidopsis relies on the accurate balance between growth and defence.

Selective inhibition of carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases : phenotypic effects on shoot branching [PDF]
Members of the carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase family catalyse the oxidative cleavage of carotenoids at various chain positions, leading to the formation of a wide range of apocarotenoid signalling molecules.

Summary Flowering of perennial Arabis alpina is differentially regulated on primary and axillary shoots. Although contributions of vernalization and ageing pathways have been analysed, those of photoperiodic flowering genes CONSTANS (CO), FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT), and TWIN‐SISTER OF FT (TSF) remain unexplored.
