摘要: Seed germination and early seedling development are two critical phases in plant lifecycle that largely determine crop yield. Phytohormones play an essential role in governing these developmental processes; of these, ethylene (ET; C2H4), the smallest gaseous hormone, plays a major role via crosstalk with other hormones. Typically, the mechanism of hormone (for instance, auxin, cytokinins, ET, and gibberellins) action is determined by cellular context, revealing either synergistic or antagonistic relations. Significant progress has been made, so far, on unveiling ET crosstalk with other hormones and environmental signals, such as light. In particular, stimulatory and inhibitory effects of ET on hypocotyl growth in light and dark, respectively, and its interaction with other hormones provide an ideal model to study the growth-regulatory pathways. In this review, we aim at exploring the mechanisms of multifarious phenomena that occur via ET crosstalk during the germination of seeds (overcoming dormancy), and all through the development of seedlings. Understanding the remarkably complex mechanism of ET crosstalk that emerges from the interaction between hormones and other molecular players to modulate plant growth, remains a challenge in plant developmental biology.
