Light-Mediated Regulation of Plant Hormone Metabolism

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Hormones and Plant Response

Part of the book series: Plant in Challenging Environments ((PCE,volume 2))

Abstract

As sessile organisms, plants have evolved sophisticated endogenous mechanisms responsible for coordinating growth and developmental responses in a constantly changing environment. Light is one of the most critical exogenous factors impacting plant life from seedling emergence to leaf senescence. Acting as mediators between light perception and intracellular responses, four major photoreceptor families – phytochromes, cryptochromes, phototropins and ultraviolet-B receptors – have been extensively characterized in plants. Each photoreceptor triggers light signal transduction in the nucleus, and their combined action fine-tunes a myriad of cellular processes ultimately leading to changes in plant growth and development. Light-triggered signaling cascades frequently involve changes in plant hormone metabolism, transport and signaling, leading to a very complex framework of how plants transduce light perception into physiological alterations. Within the broad spectrum of light-hormone interaction possibilities, here we discuss some major mechanistic links between light perception and hormone metabolism in higher plants. Based on research conducted over the last decades, we highlight the primary regulatory links between photoreceptor-mediated light perception and the biosynthesis, conjugation and degradation of auxins, gibberellins, abscisic acid, cytokinins, ethylene and brassinosteroids. The fast-moving elucidation of the complicated regulatory networks linking light perception and plant hormone homeostasis suggests a bright future for the combined manipulation of light and hormonal signaling cascades as a means for improving crop architecture, performance, stress resistance, nutritional quality, among other traits.
