Abstract excerpt
MAIN CONCLUSION: Ambient concentrations of atmospheric nitrogen dioxide (NO2) inhibit the binding of PIF4 to promoter regions of auxin pathway genes to suppress hypocotyl elongation in Arabidopsis. Ambient concentrations (10-50 ppb) of atmospheric nitrogen dioxide (NO2) positively regulate plant growth to the extent that organ size and shoot biomass can nearly double in various species, including Arabidopsis...
