A Maize Mutant Impaired in SL Biosynthesis (<i>zmccd8</i>) Shows a Lower Growth, an Altered Response to Nitrogen Starvation, and a Potential Secondary Effect on Drought Tolerance

A Maize Mutant Impaired in SL Biosynthesis (<i>zmccd8</i>) Shows a Lower Growth, an Altered Response to Nitrogen Starvation, and a Potential Secondary Effect on Drought Tolerance

Strigolactones (SLs) are essential phytohormones involved in plant development and interaction with the rhizosphere, regulating shoot branching, root architecture, and leaf senescence for nutrient reallocation. The <i>Zea mays</i> L. <i>zmccd8</i> mutant, defective in SL bios...
