Abstract excerpt
Shoot branching is a highly variable trait that evolves during plant development and is influenced by environmental and endogenous cues such as hormones. In particular, strigolactones (SLs) are hormones that play a key role in the control of shoot branching. Branch primordia, axillary buds formed in the leaf axils, display differential growth depending on their position in the plant and also respond to hormone...
