The effect of light on the process of root hair formation in phytochrome-deficient mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana lacking phytochrome A, phytochrome B or both (double mutant) were analyzed by comparing their photoresponse with that of the wild type. Results indicate that root hair formation in Arabidopsis was strongly stimulated by light irradiation. Both phytochrome A and phytochrome B are responsible for photoinduction by continuous red light irradiation, while only phytochrome A mediates the response under continuous far-red light. The fluence response relationships to a red light pulse in the wild type displayed a biphasic trend similar to that previously observed in lettuce seedlings, with the first phase showing a sharp maximum at 78.3 Jm(-2), and the second one operating over a wider fluence range (3,100-9,400 Jm(-2)) two orders of magnitude higher than the first one. Analysis of the fluence response curves for red light induction in the phytochrome mutants revealed that phytochrome A is responsible for the first phase in the wild type, white the second is the result of the combined action of both phytochrome A and phytochrome B.
