Abstract excerpt
Plants produce a group of steroid hormones named brassinosteroids (BRs), with brassinolide (BL) and castasterone (CS) exhibiting highest biological activity. The maintenance of appropriate BR homeostasis is crucial for plant growth and adaptation to environmental conditions. BRs negatively regulate Arabidopsis thaliana seedling photomorphogenesis by promoting hypocotyl elongation in the light. However, both BL...
