Abstract

The phosphorylation status of phyB changes dynamically in response to environmental conditions and critically governs the corresponding plant's responses. However, the kinase(s) that phosphorylates phyB is/are still unknown. Liu et al. have not only identified the kinase that phosphorylates phyB but also revealed its biological implications during salt stress.

Keywords: FERONIA; phosphorylation; phytochrome B (phyB); salt stress.
