Abstract
The complex process of seed germination is impacted heavily by environmental cues, such as light, mediated via photosensory systems and phytochromes. This pathway was discovered a long time ago, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. Li et al. recently showed how ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTORs (ERFs) modulate phytochrome-mediated regulation of germination.
