Light and temperature are arguably two of the most important signals regulating the growth and development of plants. In addition to their direct energetic effects on plant growth, light and temperature provide vital immediate and predictive cues for plants to ensure optimal development both spatially and temporally. While the majority of research to date has focused on the contribution of either light or temperature signals in isolation, it is becoming apparent that an understanding of how the two interact is essential to appreciate fully the complex and elegant ways in which plants utilize these environmental cues. This review will outline the diverse mechanisms by which light and temperature signals are integrated and will consider why such interconnected systems (as opposed to entirely separate light and temperature pathways) may be evolutionarily favourable.
光是植物生长和发育的重要信号，温度也是其中之一。除了直接影响植物生长的能量外，光和温度还为植物提供了重要的即时和预测性线索，以确保其在时空上的最佳发育。尽管迄今为止大多数研究都集中在单独研究光或温度信号的贡献，但越来越明显的是，了解这两种信号如何相互作用对于充分理解植物利用这些环境线索的复杂而优雅的方式至关重要。这篇综述将概述光和温度信号整合的多种机制，并探讨为什么这种相互关联的系统（而不是完全独立的光和温度途径）在进化上可能是有利的。
