This project investigates how light signals influence the development of flat leaves in plants, which is crucial for effective photosynthesis. It examines the interaction between genetic factors and light conditions, focusing on specific proteins that regulate leaf shape.
Growing flat leaves is crucial for plant success, since it directly affects light interception and photosynthesis.
This process is tightly regulated by endogenous signals revealing a strongly genetically defined developmental program, but is also modulated by the light environment.
As shown using null mutants, both blue light receptors phototropins (phot) and red/far-red light receptor phytochromeB (phyB) affect leaf flattening, and it was recently found that plants lacking PKS3, a protein invol…
