Deskripsi

Seed dormancy prevents germination under adverse environmental conditions. Here the authors show that the RVE1 and RVE2 transcription factors suppress biosynthesis of the germination-promoting hormone GA and act downstream of phytochrome signalling to promote dormancy and repress light-induced germination.
