Ovule is an important part of female reproductive organ in seed plants. In this issue, Jia et al. (pp. 1093–1111) report that brassinosteroids signaling plays critical roles in regulating embryo sac formation and outer integument growth in Arabidopsis . BZR family proteins integrate brassinosteroids signal and yet‐to‐be identified signals and regulate ovule development transcriptionally.
