Great work by @JuanCa_rotenoid et al. (2025) in showing that the #apocarotenoid zaxinone is a novel ligand of the #strigolactone (SL) receptor DWARF14 (D14) in #Arabidopsis, which acts as an SL-antagonist by blocking the interaction between D14 and MAX2.

Now online! Study by @YC_Kang05 explored the relationship between seminal root angle and root architecture in durum wheat
Root angle associated with differences in allocation of roots at different depths but not aboveground traits or total root biomass https://t.co/6dtBaKW0R1
