phyC, phyD, and phyE appear to play roles that are for the most part redundant with those of phyA and phyB. Whereas phyB appears to be involved in regulating all stages of development

The phyB mutants are deficient in chlorophyll

phyB also appears to regulate LFRs, such as photoreversible seed germination

Mutants that lack phyA respond normally to red light, whereas mutants deficient in phyB are unable to respond to low-fluence red light

PIFs promote etiolated development in the dark (skotomorphogenesis) primarily by serving as transcriptional activators of dark induced genes
