For almost a century, auxin had been well-known as the master regulator of apical dominance. Recently, however, sugars were shown to be the initial regulator of apical dominance, while strigolactones (SLs) and cytokinins (CKs) act downstream of auxin to control bud outgrowth. However, the interactions of the different pathways have remained outstanding questions. Here, we report that brassinosteroids (BRs) are essential for the release of apical dominance in tomato. CK signaling relays information from auxin, SL, and sugars to promote the production of BRs, which activate the BZR1 transcription factor to suppress the expression of BRANCHED1, an inhibitor of bud outgrowth. These findings demonstrate that hormonal and metabolic pathways impinge on a common BR signaling for controlling shoot branching. The control of apical dominance involves auxin, strigolactones (SLs), cytokinins (CKs), and sugars, but the mechanistic controls of this regulatory network are not fully understood. Here, we show that brassinosteroid (BR) promotes bud outgrowth in tomato through the direct transcriptional regulation of BRANCHED1 (BRC1) by the BR signaling component BRASSINAZOLE-RESISTANT1 (BZR1). Attenuated responses to the removal of the apical bud, the inhibition of auxin, SLs or gibberellin synthesis, or treatment with CK and sucrose, were observed in bud outgrowth and the levels of BRC1 transcripts in the BR-deficient or bzr1 mutants. Furthermore, the accumulation of BR and the dephosphorylated form of BZR1 were increased by apical bud removal, inhibition of auxin, and SLs synthesis or treatment with CK and sucrose. These responses were decreased in the DELLA-deficient mutant. In addition, CK accumulation was inhibited by auxin and SLs, and decreased in the DELLA-deficient mutant, but it was increased in response to sucrose treatment. CK promoted BR synthesis in axillary buds through the action of the type-B response regulator, RR10. Our results demonstrate that BR signaling integrates multiple pathways that control shoot branching. Local BR signaling in axillary buds is therefore a potential target for shaping plant architecture.
