Organ-specific transcriptional regulation by HFR1 and HY5 in response to shade in Arabidopsis.

ABSTRACT: Light is crucial for plants and serves as a signal for modulating their growth. Under shade, where red to far-red light ratio is low, plants exhibit shade avoidance responses (SAR). LONG HYPOCOTYL IN FAR-RED 1 (HFR1) and ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL 5 (HY5) are known to be negative regulators of SAR and physically interact with one another. However, transcriptional regulatory network underlying SAR by these two transcription factors has not been explored. Here, we performed organ-specific transcriptome analyses of Arabidopsis thaliana hfr1-5, hy5-215 and hfr1hy5 to identify genes that are co-regulated by HFR1 and HY5 in hypocotyls and cotyledons. Genes co-regulated by HFR1 and HY5 were enriched in various processes related to cell wall modification a
