Evolutionary studies illuminate the structural-functional model of plant phytochromes.

The Plant cell - 1 Jan 2010

Mathews Sarah

Abstract excerpt

A synthesis of insights from functional and evolutionary studies reveals how the phytochrome photoreceptor system has evolved to impart both stability and flexibility. Phytochromes in seed plants diverged into three major forms, phyA, phyB, and phyC, very early in the history of seed plants. Two additional forms, phyE and phyD, are restricted to flowering plants and Brassicaceae, respectively. While phyC, D, and...
