Strigolactones (SLs) were initially characterized as root-derived signals for parasitic and symbiotic interactions with root parasitic plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. In 2008, SLs or the downstream metabolites were shown to act as endogenous phytohormones that regulate shoot branching. After the discovery, many researchers demonstrated that SLs play important biological roles in plant development. Moreover, biochemical functions of SL-biosynthetic enzymes have been uncovered. In this review, we summarize recent advances in SL researches regarding diverse biological roles and biosynthesis.
