Strigolactones are also shown to inhibit shoot branching and act as the key phytohormone influencing plant architecture. Rac-GR24 (Strigolactones) is currently found to have the following effects: 1... In addition, it was found that rhizobia nitrogen fixation efficiency may also have a certain relationship with Strigolactones... In addition, the latest discovery of Strigolactones and plant resistance to the important signal substance ABA cross in the pathway...
