Abstract excerpt
Light is one of the most crucial environmental cues for plants. Phytochrome, one of the major photoreceptors of plants, regulates expression of many genes. We screened for Arabidopsis promoter trap lines that exhibited light-dependent reporter gene expression. Molecular analysis of one such line revealed that a reporter gene was inserted near an Arabidopsis homologue of the soybean GH3 gene, AtGH3a. We performed...
