“…This may be the basis of photomorphogenic responses to UV-B such as hypocotyl growth inhibition (Ballare et al, 1995;Kim et al, 1998;Favory et al, 2009;Hayes et al, 2014;Huang et al, 2014;Vandenbussche et al, 2014). In addition to UV-B stress acclimation and hypocotyl growth inhibition, UVR8 also has been implicated in UV-B entrainment of the circadian clock, stomatal closure, phototropic bending, inhibition of shade avoidance, leaf development, and defense responses (Wargent et al, 2009;Fehér et al, 2011;Demkura and Ballaré, 2012;Hayes et al, 2014;Tossi et al, 2014;Vandenbussche et al, 2014). The UVR8 signaling pathway includes CONSTITUTIVELY PHOTOMORPHOGENIC1 (COP1) and ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL5 (HY5) (Ulm et al, 2004;Brown et al, 2005;Oravecz et al, 2006;Stracke et al, 2010;Huang et al, 2012;Binkert et al, 2014) and the negative feedback regulators REPRESSOR OF UV-B PHOTOMORPHOGENESIS1 (RUP1) and RUP2 .…”
