Tóm tắt
Combining heat and light responsesPlants integrate a variety of environmental signals to regulate growth patterns. Legriset al.and Junget al.analyzed how the quality of light is interpreted through ambient temperature to regulate transcription and growth (see the Perspective by Halliday and Davis). The phytochromes responsible for reading the ratio of red to far-red light were also responsive to the small shifts in temperature that occur when dusk falls or when shade from neighboring plants cools the soil.Science, this issue p.897, p.886; see also p.832
