The karrikin receptor KAI2 promotes drought resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana.

The karrikin receptor KAI2 promotes drought resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Drought causes substantial reductions in crop yields worldwide. Therefore, we set out to identify new chemical and genetic factors that regulate drought resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana. Karrikins (KARs) are a class of butenolide compounds found in smoke that promote seed germination, and have bee...
