This project investigates the role of strigolactones, a group of plant hormones, in regulating the formation of adventitious roots from non-root tissues. By examining different plant species and developmental stages, it aims to understand how age and hormonal interactions influence root formation, which is crucial for…
Strigolactones are a newly identified (2008) group of plant hormones known to control bud outgrowth.
Recently the applicant has discovered that strigolactones also inhibit the formation of roots from non-root tissues (adventitious roots), defining a new role for strigolactones in plants.
Adventitious root formation is central for clonal propagation of elite plants and requires the dedifferentiation of stem tissues followed by controlled cell divisions.
Plant hormones including auxin regulate a…
