Wang and colleagues show that, in Arabidopsis thaliana, brassinosteroid and light-dependent transcription factors are required for giberellin effects on hypocotyl elongation, by modulating transcription of giberellin-induced genes involved in cell wall synthesis and photosynthesis. Conversely, giberellin relieves the brassinosteroid component BZR1 from inhibition by DELLA proteins.
