Abstract

Plant hormones play a vital role in the regulation of growth and development of plants, besides this, they also provide tolerance under different biotic and abiotic stresses. In plants, brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroidal hormone known to regulate many physiological, biochemical, and developmental processes. Recent studies showed that BRs can interplay with other plant hormones such as auxin (AUX), cytokinins (CKs), abscisic acid (ABA), ethylene (ETH), and gibberellic acid (GA) to regulate a range of growth and developmental processes in plants. Auxin and BRs are of two different groups of plant hormones which regulate many processes from seed germination to the fruit development independently. But in recent years, several studies have revealed a common link between these two hormones in the regulation of plant developmental processes. Current advancement in molecular tools has provided a better understanding toward the mechanism of signal transduction process of interplay of BRs and auxin. So, in this chapter, we discuss about the physiological responses of BRs and auxin interplay and its detail mechanism of signal transduction pathway.
