Phytochromes are bilin-binding photosensory receptors which control development over a
broad range of environmental conditions and throughout the whole plant life cycle. Light …

Plants must constantly adapt to a changing light environment in order to optimize energy
conversion through the process of photosynthesis and to limit photodamage. In addition …

The interplay between light receptors and PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTORs
(PIFs) serves as a regulatory hub that perceives and integrates environmental cues into …

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR) and Cas9‐associated
protein systems provide a powerful genetic manipulation tool that can drive plant research …

The non-random three-dimensional organization of genomes is critical for many cellular
processes. Recently, analyses of genome-wide chromatin packing in the model dicot plant …

Background Polyploidy is ubiquitous in eukaryotic plant and fungal lineages, and it leads to
the co-existence of several copies of similar or related genomes in one nucleus. In plants …

The flux, distribution, and storage of soluble sugars regulate crop yield in terms of starch, oil,
protein, and total carbohydrates, and affect the quality of many horticultural products. Sugar …

The developmental program by which plants respond is tightly controlled by a complex
cascade in which photoreceptors perceive and transduce the light signals that drive …

The Fourth Edition of the Handbook of Photosynthesis offers a unique and comprehensive
collection of topics in the field of photosynthesis, serving as an invaluable resource in this …

Warm temperature is postulated to induce plant thermomorphogenesis through a signaling
mechanism similar to shade, as both destabilize the active form of the photoreceptor and …
