Abstract excerpt
Plastid gene expression is regulated by a variety of nuclear genes. We have isolated Arabidopsis thaliana proton gradient regulation 3 (pgr3) mutants, which display aberrant chlorophyll fluorescence because of defects in chloroplast gene expression. High chlorophyll fluorescence (HCF) because of a reduced level of the cytochrome b6/f complex was observed in two alleles, pgr3-1 and pgr3-2 but not in pgr3-3. In...
