Action of Strigolactones in Plants
2014Strigolactones (SLs) have diverse roles that afford plants robust adaptive capacities to interact with diverse growth environments. Based on recent progress in the characterization of a class of SLs-insensitive shoot branching mutants, key components of the SL signal transduction pathway have been identified, and a framework of SL actions in plant ...

Strigolactones and Parasitic Plants
2019A parasitic plant is a flowering plant that attaches itself morphologically and physiologically to a host (another plant) by a modified root (the haustorium). Only about 25 out of the 270 genera of parasitic plants have a negative impact in agriculture and forestry, and thus can be considered weeds.

Strigolactones: a new hormone with a past
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2009The recent discovery of an endogenous hormonal activity for strigolactones in shoot branching was surprising since these molecules were thought to mostly play roles as signaling molecules between organisms. Even in the context of plant hormones, strigolactones appear to be different in that their role in plant development is quite restricted. This most

Stereospecificity in strigolactone biosynthesis and perception
Planta, 2016Plants produce strigolactones with different structures and different stereospecificities which provides the potential for diversity and flexibility of function. Strigolactones (SLs) typically comprise a tricyclic ABC ring system linked through an enol-ether bridge to a butenolide D-ring.

The Chemistry of Strigolactones
2019Focus of this chapter is the chemistry of Strigolactones. The structural features that identify the canonical versus non canonical Strigolactones, as well as the stereochemistry of the Strigol type and Orobanchol type families will be described. A special emphasis will be devoted to the total synthesis of natural Strigolactones as the most reliable and
