Strigolactones (SLs) represent a class of plant hormones that regulate developmental processes and play a role in the response of plants to various biotic and abiotic stresses. Both in planta hormonal roles and ex planta signalling effects of SLs are potentially interesting agricultural targets. In this review, we explore various aspects of SL function and highlight distinct areas of agriculture that may benefit from the use of synthetic SL analogues, and we identify possible bottlenecks. Our objective is to identify where the contributions of science and stakeholders are still needed to achieve harnessing the benefits of SLs for a sustainable agriculture of the near future.

Strigolactones（SLs）代表一类植物激素，可调节发育过程，并在植物对各种生物和非生物胁迫的响应中发挥作用。双方在植物激素的角色和前足底的SLS信号效应是潜在的有趣的农业目标。在这篇综述中，我们探讨了SL功能的各个方面，突出了可能从合成SL类似物的使用中受益的不同农业领域，并确定了可能的瓶颈。我们的目标是确定仍然需要科学和利益相关者做出贡献的地方，以便在不久的将来实现SL的益处以实现可持续农业发展。
