PhyB is most strongly associated with regulation of:

Pick B: Shade avoidance. Thinking through PHYTOCHROME step by step rules out the lookalikes and leaves Shade avoidance. Skip these: A) Seed germination; C) Vernalization; D) Stomatal movement. For hormones and genes, match the molecule or gene to its real role, not a neighboring pathway.
