In the dynamic environment of plants, the interplay between light-dependent growth and iron nutrition is a recurring challenge. Plants respond to low iron levels by adjusting growth and physiology through enhanced iron acquisition from the rhizosphere and internal iron pool reallocation. Iron deficiency response assays and gene co-expression networks aid in documenting physiological reactions and unraveling gene regulatory cascades, offering insight into the interplay between hormonal and external signaling pathways. However, research directly exploring the significance of light in iron nutrition remains limited. This review provides an overview on iron deficiency regulation and its cross-connection with distinct light signals, focusing on transcription factor cascades and long-distance signaling. The circadian clock and retrograde signaling influence iron uptake and allocation. The light-activated shoot-to-root mobile transcription factor ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL5 (HY5) affects iron homeostasis responses in roots. Blue light triggers the formation of biomolecular condensates containing iron deficiency-induced protein complexes. The potential of exploiting the connection between light and iron signaling remains underutilized. With climate change and soil alkalinity on the rise, there is a need to develop crops with improved nutrient use efficiency and modified light dependencies. More research is needed to understand and leverage the interplay between light signaling and iron nutrition
