Beyond red/far-red sensing: phytochrome perception of the marine light field by microalgae. [PDF]
Summary Phytochromes (PHYs) are a major group of photoreceptors, described as red and far‐red light sensors in land plants. Recent genomic and metagenomic explorations have revealed the presence of PHYs also in various eukaryotic microalgae originating from distinct endosymbiotic events.

Cytokinin downregulates Photosystem II photochemistry during prolonged darkness in a phytochrome B-dependent manner. [PDF]
Cytokinin–phyB signaling modulates PSII photochemistry during prolonged darkness. Summary Cytokinins (CKs) delay dark‐induced senescence, but how they tune photosynthetic function in darkness remains unclear. We investigated the effects of classical aromatic CK benzylaminopurine and CK‐derived compound 1‐(2‐methoxyethyl)‐3‐(1,2,3‐thiadiazol‐5‐yl)urea ...

Shade Avoidance Restricts Soybean Breeding Progress and Increases Herbivore Susceptibility. [PDF]
ABSTRACT High planting densities expose field crops to competition for light, which typically induces shade avoidance responses such as stem elongation. While adaptive in natural environments, these responses can lower yield and increase susceptibility to stress in agricultural systems.

Background Phytochromes are plant photoreceptors that have long been associated with photomorphogenesis in plants; however, more recently, their crucial role in the regulation of variety of abiotic stresses has been explored.

Cucumber leaf necrosis caused by radiation with abrupt increase of far-red component
Plants exhibit morphological plasticity in response to changes in the proportion of far-red radiation (FR). However, little is known about the response to a sudden increase of FR component. Cucumber seedlings were acclimatized to radiation without FR (FR-

Far-red Fraction: An Improved Metric for Characterizing Phytochrome Effects on Morphology
Phytochrome, a well-studied photoreceptor in plants, primarily absorbs in the red (R) and far-red (FR) regions and is responsible for the perception of shade and subsequent morphological responses.
