Strigolactones affect responses to osmotic stress and fruit ripening in crop plants
Published on Apr 17, 2018905 Views
Strigolactones (SLs) are a class carotenoid-derived molecules, originally characterized as mediators of plant signaling to soil (micro)organisms, including parasitic plants, endomycorrhizal fungi, and
