Abstract excerpt
Light regulates plant growth and development through a network of endogenous factors. By screening Arabidopsis activation-tagged lines, we isolated a dominant mutant (light-dependent short hypocotyls 1-D (lsh1-D)) that showed hypersensitive responses to continuous red (cR), far-red (cFR) and blue (cB) light and cloned the corresponding gene, LSH1. LSH1 encodes a nuclear protein of a novel gene family that has...
