Abstract excerpt
The cab genes which encode the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-protein (LHCP) are expressed normally with respect to phytochrome regulation in the hy-3 and hy-5 long hypocotyl mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana. In etiolated seedlings of these mutants as well as of the wild type, 1 min of red light elevates cab mRNA levels substantially within 2 h; this increase is reversed if far-red light is given immediately...
