Karrikins (KAR) are butenolide molecules produced during wildfires in smoke and deposited on soil surface. They are absorbed by seeds and activate germination. Strigolactones (SL) are different butenolide plant hormones with tricyclic lactone, that influence root branching leaf shape and senescence. KAI2 and D14 are paralogous alpha/beta hydrolase receptors respectively for KARS and SLs they belong to the RsbQ-like family. KAI2 (KARRIKIN-INSENSITVE-2) and D14 (DWARF14) are both receptors and enzymes.KAR2 is the most active karrikin in Arabidopsis germination, but is considerably less active compared to KAR1 in other species. KAR3 shows comparable germination promoting ability with KAR1 yet KAR4 (4) is not active in Arabidopsis but can promote germination at higher concentrations in the smoke-responsive taxa, Lactuca sativa (lettuce), Emmenanthe penduliflora, and Solanum orbiculatum
