Abstract excerpt
Phytochrome A (phyA) is a versatile plant photoreceptor that mediates responses to brief light exposures (very low fluence responses, VLFR) as well as to prolonged irradiation (high irradiance responses, HIR). We identified the phyA-303 mutant allele of Arabidopsis thaliana bearing an R384K substitution in the GAF subdomain of the N-terminal half of phyA. phyA-303 showed reduced phyA spectral activity, almost...
