Abstract excerpt
Phenotypes of the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) high pigment-2(dg) (hp-2(dg)) and hp-2(j) mutants are caused by lesions in the gene encoding DEETIOLATED1, a negative regulator of light signaling. Homozygous hp-2(dg) and hp-2(j) plants display a plethora of distinctive developmental and metabolic phenotypes in comparison to their normal isogenic counterparts. These mutants are, however, best known for the...
