Photoperiodic flowering is one of the most important factors affecting regional adaptation
and yield in soybean (Glycine max). Plant adaptation to long‐day conditions at higher …

The plant circadian clock coordinates the responses to multiple and often simultaneous
environmental challenges that the sessile plant cannot avoid. These responses must be …

Plants respond to the changing seasons to initiate developmental programmes precisely at
particular times of year. Flowering is the best characterized of these seasonal responses …

Many plants use information about changing day length (photoperiod) to align their
flowering time with seasonal changes to increase reproductive success. A mechanism for …

Light is crucial for plant life, and perception of the light environment dictates plant growth,
morphology, and developmental changes. Such adjustments in growth and development in …

The dynamic light environment of vegetation canopies is perceived by phytochromes,
cryptochromes, phototropins, and UV RESISTANCE LOCUS 8 (UVR8). These receptors …

Highlights•The COP1/SPA E3 ubiquitin ligase is a repressor of photomorphogenesis.•The
COP1/SPA complex targets photomorphogenesis-promoting factors for proteolysis.•Active …

Plants monitor changes in photoperiod and temperature to synchronize their flowering with
seasonal changes to maximize fitness. In the Arabidopsis photoperiodic flowering pathway …

The protein ubiquitin is a covalent modifier of proteins, including itself. The ubiquitin system
encompasses the enzymes required for catalysing attachment of ubiquitin to substrates as …

Ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation is an intrinsic fraction of sunlight that plants perceive through
the UVR8 photoreceptor. UVR8 is a homodimer in its ground state that monomerizes upon …
