Abstract excerpt
Cryptochromes are blue-light receptors that mediate blue-light inhibition of hypocotyl elongation and blue-light stimulation of floral initiation in Arabidopsis. In addition to their blue-light-dependent functions, cryptochromes are also involved in blue-light-independent regulation of the circadian clock, cotyledon unfolding, and hypocotyl inhibition. However, the molecular mechanism associated with the...
