Brassinosteroid: a biotechnological target for enhancing crop yield and stress tolerance
Uday K. Divi,Priti Krishna +1 more
TL;DR: Genetic manipulation of BR activity has indeed led to increases in crop yield by 20-60%, confirming the value of further research on BRs to improve productivity.

The Physiological, Biochemical and Molecular Roles of Brassinosteroids and Salicylic Acid in Plant Processes and Salt Tolerance
TL;DR: The current knowledge and possible applications of brassinosteroids and salicylic acid that could be used to mitigate the harmful effects of salt-stress in plants are reviewed and discussed.

A Putative Role for the Tomato Genes DUMPY and CURL-3 in Brassinosteroid Biosynthesis and Response

TL;DR: The dumpy (dpy) mutant of tomato exhibits short stature, reduced axillary branching, and altered leaf morphology, similar to the Arabidopsis constitutive photomorphogenesis and dwarfism (cpd) mutant, and brassinosteroid levels by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry were consistent with this hypothesis, and a novel xyloglucan endotransglycosylase that is regulated by brassInosteroid treatment was isolated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of Gene Expression, Growth Kinetics, and Wall Extensibility during Brassinosteroid-Regulated Stem Elongation
TL;DR: Although both BR and auxin affect wall relaxation processes, BR-promoted elongation in soybean and tomato stems acts via a mechanism that most likely does not proceed through the auxin signal transduction pathway.

TL;DR: The isolation, structure determination and biological activity of this new plant growth promoter, named (22R, 23R, 24S)-2α-3α,22,23-tetrahydroxy-24-methyl-6,7-s-5α-cholestano-6-7-lactone or brassinolide is reported.

Brassinolide, a growth-promoting steroidal lactone. I. Activity in selected auxin bioassays
TL;DR: While almost half as effective as kinetin in promoting expansion of cucumber cotyledons, BR was ineffective in cytokinin bioassays involving expansion of dwarf pea epicotyl hooks, dark synthesis of betacyanin in Amaranthus and retardation of Xanthium leaf disc senescence.

TL;DR: Strict structural features are required for a steroid to induce brassin activity and it is indicated that brassinolide was the most active.
