Flower sepals are critical for flower development and vary greatly in lifespan depending on their function post-pollination. Very little is known about what controls sepal longevity. Using a sepal senescence mutant screen, we identified two Arabidopsis mutants with delayed senescence directly connecting strigolactones (SL) with senescence regulation in a novel floral context that hitherto has not been explored. The mutations were in the SL biosynthetic gene MORE AXILLARY GROWTH1 (MAX1) and in the SL receptor DWARF14 (AtD14). The mutat
