FERONIA, the kinase that phosphorylates PhyB.

ABSTRACT

The phosphorylation status of phyB changes dynamically in response to environmental conditions and critically governs the corresponding plant's responses. However, the kinase(s) that phosphorylates phyB is/are still unknown. Liu et al. have not only identified the kinase that phosphorylates phyB but also revealed its biological implications during salt stress.
