Phytochromes are vital photoreceptors in plants, facilitating responses to light and temperature changes. They undergo reversible conversion between inactive (Pr) and active (Pfr) forms, crucial for perceiving and adapting to light variations. Recent research delves into the molecular mechanisms governing phytochrome activation, including chromophore isomerization. Temperature profoundly influences phytochrome dynamics, impacting the equilibrium between Pr and Pfr forms and modulating phytochrome-mediated signaling pathways. Notably, temperature-sensitive photobodies, where active phytochromes accumulate, have been elucidated, shedding light on cellular regulation. Case studies, particularly in Arabidopsis thaliana, highlight tissue-specific responses to temperature changes, revealing the nuanced interplay between light and temperature signaling pathways. Understanding these mechanisms enhances plant biology knowledge and offers insights into agricultural and ecological resilience to climate change.
