Brassinosteroids (BRs) and Gibberellins (GAs) are two principal groups of growth-promoting
phytohormones. Accumulating evidence supports that there are crosstalks between BR and …

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroidal plant hormones essential for normal plant growth and
development. Mutants in the biosynthesis or perception of BRs are usually dwarf. The …

Based on its compact habit, Micro-Tom, a dwarf cultivar of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum
L.), has been proposed as a preferred variety to carry out molecular research in tomato. This …

To transposon tag the tomato Dwarf (D) gene, a tomato line that carries a T-DNA containing
a maize Activator (Ac) transposable element closely linked to D was pollinated with a stock …

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are essential for many physiological functions in plants, however
little is known concerning where and when they are synthesized. This is especially true …

Research on gibberellin (GA) mutants is reviewed, focusing on reports, published since
1993. The mutants have usually been identified via a shoot elongation screen. This screen …

Recent advances in the study of GA mutants are reviewed. Endogenous GAs in the vast
majority of GA synthesis and response mutants have now been quantified by …

In tomato, nine independent EMS-induced mutants representing recessive mutations at
three different loci (gib-1, gib-2, and gib-3) were isolated. Six of these have an almost …

Plants contain three major growth-promoting plant hormones: auxin, gibberellins (GAs), and
brassinosteroids (BRs), although other hormones also promote growth in certain …

Endemic Galápagos tomatoes (Lycopersicon cheesmanii) are of great value for cultivated
tomato (L. esculentum) breeding, and therefore their conservation is of significance …
