Abstract excerpt
hy8 long hypocotyl mutants of Arabidopsis defective in responsiveness to prolonged far-red light (the so-called "far-red high-irradiance response") are selectively deficient in functional phytochrome A. To define the molecular lesion in these mutants, we sequenced the phytochrome A gene (phyA) in lines carrying one or other of two classes of hy8 alleles. The hy8-1 and hy8-2 mutants that express no detectable...
