Strigolactone plant hormones control plant architecture and are key players in both symbiotic
and parasitic interactions. They contain an ABC tricyclic lactone connected to a butenolide …

Initially known for their role in the rhizosphere in stimulating the seed germination of parasitic
weeds such as the Striga and Orobanche species, and later as host recognition signals for …

Strigolactones (SLs), first identified for their role in parasitic and symbiotic interactions in the
rhizosphere, constitute the most recently discovered group of plant hormones. They are best …

In the rhizosphere, strigolactones not only act as crucial signalling molecules in the
communication of plants with parasitic weeds and arbuscular mycorrhiza, but they also play a key …

Strigolactones (SLs) are known not only as plant hormones, but also as rhizosphere signals
for establishing symbiotic and parasitic interactions. The design of new specific SL analogs …

Strigolactones are important rhizosphere signals that act as phytohormones and have
multiple functions, including modulation of lateral root (LR) development. Here, we show that …

Uncovering the basis of small-molecule hormone receptors’ evolution is paramount to a
complete understanding of how protein structure drives function. In plants, hormone receptors …

Bovine odorant-binding protein (bOBP) is a dimeric lipocalin present in large amounts in the
respiratory and olfactory nasal mucosa. The structure of bOBP refined at 2.0-Å resolution …

A concise route to a key intermediate in the total synthesis of guanacastepene A is
described. The main features include the simultaneous construction of the seven- and six-membered …
