Plant Physiology: Out in the Midday Sun, Plants Keep Their Cool
Abstract
Plants use context-dependent information to calibrate growth responses to temperature signals. A new study shows that plants modulate their sensitivity to temperature depending on whether or not they are in direct sunlight. This enables them to make adaptive decisions in a complex natural environment.
