Flematti G, Scaffidi A, Waters M, Smith S
Planta
. 2016 Apr;
243(6):1361-73.
PMID: 27105887
Plants 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...

. 2015 Oct;
25(11):1219-36.
PMID: 26470846
Strigolactones (SLs) are endogenous hormones and exuded signaling molecules in plant responses to low levels of mineral nutrients. Key mediators of the SL signaling pathway in rice include the α/β-fold...

PMID: 26175507
In Arabidopsis thaliana, the α/β-fold hydrolase KARRIKIN INSENSITIVE2 (KAI2) is essential for normal seed germination, seedling development, and leaf morphogenesis, as well as for responses to karrikins. KAI2 is a...

PMID: 25344813
Strigolactones (SLs) are a class of phytohormones and rhizosphere signaling compounds with high structural diversity. Three enzymes, carotenoid isomerase DWARF27 and carotenoid cleavage dioxygenases CCD7 and CCD8, were previously shown...

PMID: 24808100
Two α/β-fold hydrolases, KARRIKIN INSENSITIVE2 (KAI2) and Arabidopsis thaliana DWARF14 (AtD14), are necessary for responses to karrikins (KARs) and strigolactones (SLs) in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). Although KAI2 mediates responses to...

PMID: 24433542
Arabidopsis thaliana provides a powerful means to investigate the mode of action of karrikins, compounds produced during wildfires that stimulate germination of seeds of fire-following taxa. These studies have revealed...

Curr Opin Plant Biol
. 2013 Aug;
16(5):667-73.
PMID: 23954000
Karrikins are butenolides in smoke and char that stimulate seed germination. Karrikin action in Arabidopsis requires the F-box protein MAX2 and the α/β-hydrolase KAI2, a paralogue of D14 that is...

Plant J
. 2013 Jun;
76(1):1-9.
PMID: 23773129
Strigolactone hormones are derived from carotenoids via carlactone, and act through the α/β-hydrolase D14 and the F-box protein D3/MAX2 to repress plant shoot branching. While MAX2 is also necessary for...
