Environmental, developmental, and genetic factors controlling root system architecture [PDF]

, 2014
A better understanding of the development and architecture of roots is essential to develop strategies to increase crop yield and optimize agricultural land use.

Analytical methods in strigolactone research [PDF]

Plant Methods, 2020
AbstractStrigolactones (SLs) are important plant hormones that are produced via the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway and occur at extremely low concentrations in various plant species. They regulate root development, play important roles in symbioses between higher plants and mycorrhizal fungi, and stimulate germination of plant–parasitic Orobanche and ...

‘Candidatus Liberibacter Asiaticus’ Effector SECP8 Subverts Salicylic Acid‐Mediated Citrus Immunity via a Two‐Pronged Impairment of CsTCP15 Dimerization

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), a devastating disease caused by the unculturable bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas), poses a severe threat to global citrus production. CLas secretes effectors to suppress host immune responses and facilitate its colonisation. Previously, the CLas effector SECP8 (CLIBASIA_05330) has been identified

Evolution of strigolactone receptors by gradual neofunctionalization of KAI2 paralogues [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Strigolactones (SLs) are a class of plant hormones that control many aspects of plant growth. The SL signalling mechanism is homologous to that of karrikins (KARs), smoke-derived compounds that stimulate seed germination.

Autoactive MtDMI1 Reprogrammes Immunity and Development in Tomato via Ethylene Signalling

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Common Symbiosis Signalling Pathway (CSSP) underpins interactions between plants and microbes, yet its potential for crop improvement remains underexplored. Here, we investigated the gain‐of‐function mutant SPD1 (MtDMI1S760N), which constitutively activates the symbiotic signalling pathway in Medicago truncatula, by expressing it in tomato

OsWRKY53‐OsGT1 Module Regulates Rice Tiller Development and Is Involved in Fine‐Tuning Strigolactone Signaling

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant architecture, including plant height, tiller number, and leaf angle, is a critical determinant of rice yield. However, few genes have been identified that simultaneously regulate these traits and hold breeding value. We have previously shown that OsWRKY53 regulates the plant height and leaf angle via BR signalling.

LbCu/ZnSOD and LbMnSOD involved in drought stress tolerance induced by strigolactones of cut lily

Horticultural Science, 2023
In this study, LbCu/ZnSOD, LbFeSOD, and LbMnSOD genes were cloned, the role of strigolactones (SLs), a novel plant hormone that is ubiquitous in plants in modulating plant responses to abiotic stress, on the three superoxide dismutases (SODs) under ...

Strigolactone analogues induce suicidal seed germination of Striga spp. in soil [PDF]

, 2012
Striga hermonthica and Striga asiatica are obligate root parasites that cause serious problems in the production of staple cereal crops in Africa. Because of the high levels of infestation, there is an urgent need to control these weeds.

At the nexus of three kingdoms: the genome of the mycorrhizal fungus Gigaspora margarita provides insights into plant, endobacterial and fungal interactions. [PDF]

, 2020
As members of the plant microbiota, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF, Glomeromycotina) symbiotically colonize plant roots. AMF also possess their own microbiota, hosting some uncultivable endobacteria.

Strigolactones affect the stomatal and transcriptomic memory of repeated drought stress in tomato

Plant Stress
Stress memory is an adaptive strategy for plants to cope with fluctuating environmental conditions. For example, it has been shown that the transcriptional responses to drought can be “trained”, i.e. changed, by a previous stress episode.
