Low Infection of Phelipanche aegyptiaca in Micro-Tom Mutants Deficient in CAROTENOID CLEAVAGE DIOXYGENASE 8

Low Infection of Phelipanche aegyptiaca in Micro-Tom Mutants Deficient in CAROTENOID CLEAVAGE DIOXYGENASE 8

Strigolactones (SLs), a group of plant hormones, induce germination of root-parasitic plants and inhibit shoot branching in many plants. Shoot branching is an important trait that affects the number and quality of flowers and fruits. Root-parasitic plants, such as Phelipanche spp., infect tomato roo...
