Coronatine inhibits mesocotyl elongation by promoting ethylene production in etiolated maize seedlings
Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the most important cereal crops in the world. In order to survive, plants must regulate their growth in response to multiple developmental and environmental cues, including modulatin...

Application of Brassinosteroid Mimetics Improves Growth and Tolerance of Maize to Nicosulfuron Toxicity
Pesticide residues, especially for herbicides, often damage crops, except for weeds, which results in reduced production or even death in agriculture. Brassinosteroids (BRs) can alleviate the injury from pesti...

A Novel Bikinin Analogue for Arabidopsis and Rice with Superior Plant Growth-Promoting Activity
Bikinin was previously identified in a chemical genetics screening as one of the most active brassinolide (BL) mimetics. To determine the effects of different heterocyclic groups replacing the pyridine ring on...

Dissection of the molecular genetic architecture of the ratio of ear to plant heights in response to ethylene by a RIL population with SNPs marker in maize
The low ratio of ear-to-plant heights (EPR) contributes to the balance and stability of maize plant’s center of gravity, resulting in reduced lodging for high grain yield. Previous studies on EPR of maize plan...

Dose-Dependent Effects of Coronatine on Cotton Seedling Growth Under Salt Stress
Coronatine (COR) is a chlorosis-inducing, non-host-specific phytotoxin produced by several members of the Pseudomonas syringae group of pathovars. It acts as a molecular mimic of methyl jasmonate. This study inve...

Physiological Evaluation of Drought Stress Tolerance and Recovery in Cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L.) Seedlings Treated with Methyl Jasmonate and Coronatine
Coronatine (COR) is a chlorosis-inducing phytotoxin that mimics some biological activities of methyl jasmonate (MeJA). Although MeJA has been reported to alleviate drought stress, it is unclear if COR has the ...

Brassinolide alleviated the adverse effect of water deficits on photosynthesis and the antioxidant of soybean (Glycine max L.)
Brassinolide (BR) is a relatively new plant growth regulator. To test whether BR could be used to increase tolerance to water deficits in soybean, the effects of BR application on photosynthesis, assimilate di...
