The shade of things to come: plastid retrograde signaling and shade avoidance
The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefPlants compete with each other over finite resources like water and nutrients, but also for sunlight when they grow in each other’s shadow. Light filtered through leaves is rich in far-red light and initiates responses, known as shade avoidance syndrome (SAS), that aim to out-compete neighbors by promoting…

The Protein Phosphatase 4 Complex Functions in miRNA Biogenesis in Arabidopsis
The Plant Cell, The Plant Cell: In BriefMicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short (typically 21–22 nucleotide), single-stranded noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression, mainly via posttranscriptional gene silencing. The miRNA biogenesis pathway is complex, involving numerous proteins, and is highly conserved in plants. If this pathway is hampered,…
