Abstract: Plant hormones: ten and counting The 'classic' plant hormones, discovered during the first half of the twentieth century, are auxin, abscisic acid, cytokinin, gibberellin and ethylene. More recently, further compounds have been recognized as hormones, including brassinosteroids, jasmonate, salicylic acid, nitric oxide and strigolactones. There has been rapid progress in research into the molecular mechanisms of plant hormones old and new, reviewed this week by Aaron Santner and Mark Estelle. The ubiquitin/proteasome system of protein ubiquitination and degradation has been identified as a key component in the signalling pathways of most of these compounds, and details of a complex regulatory network connecting the individual hormonal control systems are beginning to emerge.
