Plants cope with Pi deficiency by triggering an array of adaptive responses, including the remodeling of root system architecture (RSA). Arabidopsis thaliana grown on a Pi-deficient (-Pi) medium in transparent Petri dishes exhibits an inhibition of ...

Distinct mechanisms of Drosophila CRYPTOCHROME-mediated light-evoked membrane depolarization and in vivo clock resetting. [PDF]
Drosophila CRYPTOCHROME (dCRY) mediates electrophysiological depolarization and circadian clock resetting in response to blue or ultraviolet (UV) light.

The ZmCOP1s–ZmCOL3 Module Enhances Late Flowering, Grain Yield and Grain Quality in Maize
ABSTRACT Flowering time is a key determinant of yield and regional adaptation in crops and is largely controlled by light signalling. In this study, we identified two maize orthologs of Arabidopsis CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC 1 (COP1), designated ZmCOP1a and ZmCOP1b, which activate light signalling and reduce plant height. Loss‐of‐function mutants of

IntroductionFar-red (FR; 700–800 nm) light and the difference between day and night temperature (DIF) interactively regulate plant morphology and growth. FR light and +DIF synergistically promote stem elongation, often reducing leaf expansion and overall

Cryptochromes are photoreceptors involved in biological magnetoreception, but the interplay of conformation, electronic coupling, and molecular motion remains poorly understood.

Photoreceptor cross-talk in UV-B photomorphogenesis in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) : screening through phytochrome and cryptochrome mutants : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Biology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Figures 1.1, 1.3, 1.4 and 1.5 removed due to copyright reasonsPlant photoreceptors detect changes in the light environment and induce differential gene expression, resulting in the appropriate physiological and morphological responses.

Phytochrome A mediates blue-light enhancement of second-positive phototropism in Arabidopsis [PDF]
Hypocotyl phototropism of etiolated Arabidopsis seedlings is primarily mediated by the blue-light receptor kinase phototropin 1 (phot1). Phot1-mediated curvature to continuous unilateral blue light irradiation (0.5 µmol m-2 s-1) is enhanced by overhead ...

ABSTRACT Hydroxycinnamoyl tyramine conjugates are phenolamides produced by plants in response to pathogen attack and biotic stresses. Their proposed mechanisms of action include cytotoxicity towards pathogens, cell wall reinforcement to restrict pathogen proliferation, and signaling activity to trigger general stress responses.

Structure and Function of Animal Cryptochromes [PDF]
Cryptochrome (CRY) is a photolyase-like flavoprotein with no DNA-repair activity but with known or presumed blue-light receptor function. Animal CRYs have DNA-binding and autokinase activities, and their flavin cofactor is reduced by photoinduced electron transfer.

BackgroundPlant photoreceptors, phytochromes and cryptochromes, regulate many aspects of development and growth, such as seed germination, stem elongation, seedling de-etiolation, cotyledon opening, flower induction and circadian rhythms.
