Abstract excerpt
Seedling deetiolation is a hallmark of the photomorphogenic response, and successful conversion of protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) into chlorophyllide during initial light exposure is critical for plant survival and growth. Here we describe the seedling deetiolation process of two typical mutants pif3 and flu by analysis of the cotyledons greening, Pchlide content, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and...
