Carotenoid cleavage, catalyzed by CAROTENOID CLEAVAGE DIOXYGENASEs (CCDs),
provides signaling molecules and precursors of plant hormones. Recently, we showed that …

Vitamin A deficiency remains a severe global health issue, which creates a need to biofortify
crops with provitamin A carotenoids (PACs). Expanding plant cell capacity for synthesis and …

The plant hormone strigolactones (SLs) are secreted by plant roots to act as rhizospheric
signals. Here, we present a protocol for characterizing plant-released SLs. We first outline all …

The COVID-19 pandemic, a global health crisis, has had a severe negative impact on society
