Full Description
Strigolactones are a class of plant hormones that play a crucial role in regulating plant growth, development, and responses to environmental stresses. These compounds were initially identified for their role in stimulating the germination of parasitic plants, but recent research has uncovered their broader significance in plant biology. Strigolactones influence various aspects of plant architecture, including shoot branching, root development, and leaf senescence. Moreover, they act as signalling molecules that help plants adapt to nutrient-deficient conditions and other environmental stresses. Understanding the multifaceted roles of strigolactones is essential for developing strategies to improve crop yield and resilience in the face of changing climatic conditions. The book provides an in-depth understanding of the role of strigolactones in plant growth and development. It explores the molecular pathways and mechanisms by which strigolactones exert their effects, and the potential applications of strigolactones in enhancing crop yield and stress resilience. It is suitable for researchers in plant science and agriculture, agronomists and agricultural consultants, and plant breeders and biotechnologists.
