Integration of Plant Responses to Environmentally Activated Phytohormonal Signals. Science 311 (2006) 91-94. The authors show that independent hormonal and environmental stress signals appear to alter GA responses by directly or indirectly affecting the GA-mediated degradation of DELLA proteins, demonstrating that the growth restraint conferred by DELLA proteins is beneficial and promotes survival under stresses.

Light-inhibition of seedlings hypocotyl growth depends on light-activated DELLAs accumulation by downregulation of bioactive GA level. The paper demonstrates the DELLA proteins are a major component to repress plant growth during photomorphogenesis.

Plant Cell 19 (2007) 32-45. GAMT1 and GAMT2 catalyze formation of the methyl esters of gibberellins. Transgenic Arabidopsis plants expressing GAMT1 or GAMT2 show GA deficient phenotypes, suggesting that methylation of GAs causes deactivation.

The authors describe that AGF1 (for the AT-hook protein of GA feedback regulation) protein binds to the cis-acting GA-negative feedback element 1 (GNFE1) of GA3ox1 promoter and involves in the homeostasis of GA.

Genetic characterization and functional analysis of the GID1 gibberellin receptors in Arabidopsis. Plant Cell 18 (2006) 3399-3414. The authors demonstrate that three GID1 orthologs in Arabidopsis, AtGID1a, AtGID1b, AtGID1c, function as GA receptors. atgid1a atgid1b atgid1c triple mutant has GA-insensitive dwarf phenotype much more severe than that of ga1-3 mutant, whereas, phenotype could be partially rescued by lacking DELLA. GA-AtGID1 complex promotes the interaction between DELLA and the F-box protein SLY1.

The DELLA domain of GA INSENSITIVE mediates the interaction with the GA INSENSITIVE DWARF1A Gibberellin receptor of Arabidopsis. Plant Cell 19 (2006) 1209-1220. The authors describe that DELLA domain of the DELLA proteins is sufficient to mediate GA-dependent AtGID1 interaction, indicating that DELLA domain functions as a perception site for GA activated GA receptor.
