Two photobiological pathways of phytochrome A activity, only one of which shows dominant negative suppression by phytochrome B

The plant receptor phytochrome A (phyA) mediates responses like hypocotyl growth inhibition and cotyledon unfolding that require continuous far-red (FR) light for maximum expression (high-irradiance responses, HIR), and responses like seed germination that can be induced by a single pulse of FR (ver...
