Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a group of naturally occurring plant steroidal compounds having varied biological activities. This group was recently added in the category of classical hormones and considered as sixth novel plant growth hormone. BRs regulate numerous important pomological attributes such as initiation and cessation of flowering, plant canopy architecture, micropropagation, cell division and elongation, vegetative growth, flowering, fruit set, fruit ripening, quality and yield. Besides, BRs can improve resistance/tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. These are also known to enhance postharvest fruit quality. Owing to multiple and diverse physiological roles in plant growth and development, BRs have been collectively referred to as ‘pleotropic phytohormones’. In the present review, we have attempted to highlight the conceptual research and development of BRs with their wide range of physiological functions and economic significance in relation to modern fruit production.
