Abstract excerpt
Shortly after the release of singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) in chloroplasts drastic changes in nuclear gene expression occur in the conditional flu mutant of Arabidopsis that reveal a rapid transfer of signals from the plastid to the nucleus. Factors involved in this retrograde signaling were identified by mutagenizing a transgenic flu line expressing a (1)O(2)-responsive reporter gene. The reporter gene consisted of...
