Boosting Drought Resilience in Rice: The Priming Effects of Zaxinone and Its Mimics [PDF]

Physiologia Plantarum
ABSTRACT Climate change increasingly threatens global agriculture, with drought emerging as a major constraint on crop productivity. Plants activate complex adaptive responses, involving genetic, physiological, and hormonal networks, to cope with water deficit.

Arabidopsis response to the apocarotenoid zaxinone involves interference with strigolactone signaling via binding to DWARF14 [PDF]

Nature Communications
The natural growth regulator zaxinone increases the levels of the phytohormones strigolactone (SL) and abscisic acid in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) via unknown mechanisms.

Effect of exogenous treatment with zaxinone and its mimics on rice root microbiota across different growth stages [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Enhancing crops productivity to ensure food security is one of the major challenges encountering agriculture today. A promising solution is the use of biostimulants, which encompass molecules that enhance plant fitness, growth, and productivity.

Plant apocarotenoids: from retrograde signaling to interspecific communication [PDF]

The Plant Journal, Volume 105, Issue 2, Page 351-375, January 2021., 2021
Summary Carotenoids are isoprenoid compounds synthesized by all photosynthetic and some non‐photosynthetic organisms. They are essential for photosynthesis and contribute to many other aspects of a plant's life. The oxidative breakdown of carotenoids gives rise to the formation of a diverse family of essential metabolites called apocarotenoids.

Apocarotenoids Involved in Plant Development and Stress Response [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Carotenoids are isoprenoid pigments synthesized by all photosynthetic organisms and many heterotrophic microorganisms. They are equipped with a conjugated double-bond system that builds the basis for their role in harvesting light energy and in ...

Carotenoid-derived bioactive metabolites shape plant root architecture to adapt to the rhizospheric environments [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Roots are important plant organs for the uptake of water and nutrient elements. Plant root development is finely regulated by endogenous signals and environmental cues, which shapes the root system architecture to optimize the plant growth and adapt to ...

A structural homologue of the plant receptor D14 mediates responses to strigolactones in the fungal phytopathogen Cryphonectria parasitica [PDF]

New Phytologist, Volume 234, Issue 3, Page 1003-1017, May 2022., 2022
Summary Strigolactones (SLs) are plant hormones and important signalling molecules required to promote arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis. While in plants an α/β‐hydrolase, DWARF14 (D14), was shown to act as a receptor that binds and cleaves SLs, the fungal receptor for SLs is unknown.

Identification of the carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase genes and functional analysis reveal DoCCD1 is potentially involved in beta-ionone formation in Dendrobium officinale [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The carotenoids are the most widely distributed secondary metabolites in plants and can be degraded by carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase (CCD) to form apocarotenoids including an important C13 compound beta-ionone.
