Strigolactones (SLs) are a diverse class of butenolide-bearing phytohormones derived from the catabolism carotenoids. They associated with an increasing number emerging regulatory roles in plant growth and development, including seed germination, root shoot architecture patterning, nutrient acquisition, symbiotic parasitic interactions, as well mediation responses to abiotic biotic cues.Here, we provide concise overview SL biosynthesis, signal transduction pathways SL-mediated detailed discourse on crosstalk(s) that exist between SLs/components signalling other such auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins, abscisic acid, ethylene, jasmonates salicylic acid.SLs elicit their control physiological morphological processes via direct or indirect influence activities hormones and/or integrants cascades regulators. These, among many others, include modulation hormone content, transport distribution within tissues, interference complete dependence downstream components phytohormones, acting synergistically antagonistically responses. Although much has been done evince effects interactions at cell whole levels, research attention must be channelled towards elucidating precise molecular events underlie these processes. More especially case gibberellin, acid for which very little reported about hormonal crosstalk SLs.
