Significance Phytochrome B (phyB) is the predominant red light photoreceptor that transduces red light signals to downstream signaling. On red light exposure, photoactivated phyB interacts with a transcription factor termed PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTOR 3 (PIF3), a repressor of red light signaling, triggering its rapid phosphorylation and subsequent degradation. Thus, phyB-PIF3 defines a critical regulatory hub for red light-mediated seedling development. In this study, we show that B-BOX CONTAINING PROTEIN 4 (BBX4) is a key component involved in the phyB-PIF3 regulatory module. phyB directly interacts with BBX4 and positively controls the abundance of BBX4 in red light. Accumulated BBX4 directly interacts with PIF3 to inhibit its transcriptional activation activity toward target genes, thereby promoting photomorphogenesis.

BBX4, a phyB-interacting and modulated regulator, directly interacts with PIF3 to fine tune red light-mediated photomorphogenesis
