Abstract excerpt
Cryptochrome 1 (CRY1) is an important light receptor essential for de-etiolation of Arabidopsis seedlings. However, its function in regulating plant architecture remains unclear. Here, we show that mutation in CRY1 resulted in increased branching of Arabidopsis plants. To investigate the underlying mechanism, we analyzed the expression profiles of branching-related genes and found that the mRNA levels of...
