Global warming imposes a major threat to plant growth and crop production. In many cases, plants could sense the temperature increase and adjust their morphology and development, facilitating plant ...

PIF4通过调控IAA和SA通路影响植物生长与免疫互作。研究显示PIF4缺失突变体对T3SS缺陷菌防御增强，表明其抑制免疫。PIF4促进IAA合成相关基因表达，促进生长，同时抑制SA合成基因，削弱PTI和ETI。
