2 Figure 1 Model of the Shade Avoidance Syndrome Allowing Plants to Escape from Competition Plants use different photoreceptor systems to detect unfavorable low light conditions caused by shading. (A) Arabidopsis thaliana, the model plant used in this study, encodes five phytochromes (phyA–phyE), and phyB is the main phytochrome involved in SAS (Casal, 2013). PhyB measures the red:far-red (R:FR) ratio, which is strongly lowered under foliar shade. Under such conditions, most of the phyB is converted to its inactive red-light absorbing form (PrB), releasing the inhibitory effect of its active far-red absorbing form (PfrB) on the activity of PIF7 and other PIFs. PIF7 induces genes (YUCCAs) required for the biosynthesis of the phytohormone auxin from the precursor tryptophan (Trp) in the leaves. Auxin is then transported to the stem through efflux carriers (PINs), where it promotes elongation growth. (B) The cryptochrome 2 (cry2) blue light photoreceptor binds to PIF4 and PIF5 on the promoter regions of shade-induced genes, potentially regulating their expression. (C) The inhibitory role of cry1 on PIF4 and PIF5 is suppressed under low blue light. PIF-induced genes encode cell-wall-remodeling enzymes (such as expansins, XTH), allowing extension growth of the stem in a process that also requires auxin. Phytochrome- and cryptochrome-mediated SAS results in similar morphological changes but through different mechanisms. Cell  , 15-17DOI: ( /j.cell ) Copyright © 2016 Elsevier Inc.
