Funded Activity Summary

Strigologues: inventing activity-specific plant hormones. This project will invent a suite of 'designer plant-hormones' that activate specific responses in important food crops, such as seed germination or growth regulation. Using nature as a guide and cutting edge organic chemistry as a tool, molecules that mimic the strigolactones will be designed as next generation agrichemicals.
