Abstract excerpt
A specific light program consisting of multiple treatments with alternating red and far-red light pulses was used to isolate mutants in phytochrome A-dependent signal transduction pathways in Arabidopsis. Because of their phenotype, the mutants were called eid for empfindlicher im dunkelroten Licht, which means hypersensitive in far-red light. One of the isolated mutants, eid4, is a novel semi-dominant allele of...
