Disruption PhenotypeIncreased shoot branching. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15737939, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16387852, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20667910, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21119045, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23204501}.
FunctionActs downstream of CCD7/MAX3 and CCD8/MAX4 in strigolactone signaling pathway and may be implicated in synthesis of carotenoid-derived branch regulators. Acts as a positive regulator of the flavonoid pathway in the late vegetative stage plant. Strigolactones are hormones that inhibit tillering and shoot branching through the MAX-dependent pathway, contribute to the regulation of shoot architectural response to phosphate- limiting conditions and function as rhizosphere signal that stimulates hyphal branching of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and trigger seed germination of root parasitic weeds. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15737939, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16387852}.
MiscellaneousThe branching phenotypes of the max1, ccd7/max3 and ccd8/max4 mutants can be rescued by exogenous treatment with the synthetic strigolactone analogs GR24 and 4BD. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:23204501}.
