Arabidopsis contains five genes encoding phytochromes, PHYA–PHYE, four of the five phytochromes appear mostly light-stable in the plant and function primarily in the regulation of LFRs and of shade avoidance involving changes in the R:FR ratio.

b) Inhibition of hypocotyl elongation in various plants
c) Induction of flowering and Plumular hook opening in lettuce
d) Enlargement of cotyledons in mustard
e) Production of ethylene in sorghum
