Title: The role of phytochrome in stress tolerance. Author: Carvalho RF, Campos ML, Azevedo RA. Journal: J Integr Plant Biol; 2011 Dec; 53(12):920-9. PubMed ID: 22040287. Abstract: It is well-documented that phytochromes can control plant growth and development from germination to flowering. Additionally, these photoreceptors have been shown to modulate both biotic and abiotic stress. This has led to a series of studies exploring the molecular and biochemical basis by which phytochromes modulate stresses, such as salinity, drought, high light or herbivory. Evidence for a role of phytrochromes in plant stress tolerance is explored and reviewed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
