Coordinated histone variant H2A.Z eviction and H3.3 deposition control plant thermomorphogenesis
Plant Science Research WeeklyThe effect of temperature on plant morphology is known as thermomorphogenesis. The phytohormone auxin is important for thermo-induced cell elongation. In Arabidopsis thaliana, Phytochrome-Interacting Factor 4 (PIF4) forms the central hub of the thermal response pathway and directly regulates auxin synthesis…
