Does Karrikin Signaling Shape the Rhizomicrobiome via the Strigolactone Biosynthetic Pathway?

Trends Plant Sci. 2020 Dec;25(12):1184-1187. doi: 10.1016/j.tplants.2020.08.005. Epub 2020 Sep 1.

Abstract

A recent study by Choi et al. provides evidence of the interaction between the karrikin (KAR) signaling and strigolactone (SL) biosynthetic pathways. Since SLs shape rhizomicrobiome composition, it is of interest to determine whether KAR signaling could affect rhizomicrobiome composition by improving the synthesis of root-derived SLs to support climate-smart agriculture.

Keywords: DWARF 14-LIKE-ligand; karrikins; rhizomicrobiome; strigolactones.
