Photocontrol of stem growth.
Rapid and measurable growth rate changes that occur in seedling stems upon illumination serve as an excellent means to analyze signal transduction. Growth kinetic studies have shown how red, far-red and blue light signals are transduced via the solitary and/or coordinated action of known plant photoreceptors. These reports are consistent with current findings describing light-induced photoreceptor interaction and compartmentation.
