Abstract excerpt
In plants, low fluences of ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B; 280-320 nm) trigger the activation of protection mechanisms and various photomorphogenic responses. We established a novel screen to isolate Arabidopsis T-DNA mutants (uli, UV-B light insensitive) with reduced sensitivity towards UV-B light-mediated inhibition of hypocotyl growth. One of the mutants, uli3, shows also a reduced sensitivity of UV-B-induced...
