PIF3 is a repressor of chloroplast development.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 5 May 2009

Stephenson Patrick G, Fankhauser Christian, Terry Matthew J

Abstract excerpt

The phytochrome-interacting factor PIF3 has been proposed to act as a positive regulator of chloroplast development. Here, we show that the pif3 mutant has a phenotype that is similar to the pif1 mutant, lacking the repressor of chloroplast development PIF1, and that a pif1pif3 double mutant has an additive phenotype in all respects. The pif mutants showed elevated protochlorophyllide levels in the dark, and...
