“…Several lines of evidence, including analyses of genome-wide changes in gene expression, suggest that multiple hormones play roles during the shade-avoidance syndrome (Devlin et al, 2003;Sessa et al, 2005;Tao et al, 2008;Hornitschek et al, 2012;Leivar et al, 2012;Li et al, 2012;Crocco et al, 2015;Nito et al, 2015;Nozue et al, 2015;Das et al, 2016). In particular, brassinosteroids, gibberellic acid (GA), and jasmonic acid have been shown to function in growth regulation in shaded environments (DjakovicPetrovic et al, 2007;Kozuka et al, 2010;Robson et al, 2010;Keller et al, 2011;Keuskamp et al, 2011;Cifuentes-Esquivel et al, 2013;Bou-Torrent et al, 2014;Moreno and Ballaré, 2014;Nozue et al, 2015;Das et al, 2016;Procko et al, 2016).…”
