Because the relevant PIF proteins are degraded in light, they can function only in the combined absence of light and presence of GA.
GA signaling likely evolved at the same time as or just after the plant vascular system and before the acquisition of seed reproduction.
Selaginella contains genes required for GA biosynthesis and signaling, but the physiological role of GA response in Selaginella remains unresolved.
GA signaling is centered on DELLA proteins, which act as negative regulators of GA response.
The GA-GID1-DELLA complex has increased affinity for an F-box protein, after which DELLAs are degraded via the proteasome and GA induces growth through DELLA degradation.
