Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation Pchlide content was high at the top of dark-grown lip1 epicotyls and decreased downward.
- Mechanism Elevated Pchlide in lip1 seedlings resulted from more proplastids differentiating into Pchlide-containing plastids.
- Observation lip1 epicotyl cortex cells contained Pchlide-containing plastids unlike wild-type cells.
- Mechanism lip1 roots developed Pchlide-containing plastids, consistent with COP1 suppression of plastid development in dark-grown wild-type plants.
- Observation The plastid distribution in dark-grown lip1 stems and roots resembled chloroplast distribution in irradiated wild-type plants.
- Observation Both wild-type and lip1 epicotyls mostly contained short-wavelength Pchlide fluorescing at 631 nm, with a small 654 nm shoulder.
- Intervention effect Continuous irradiation formed considerable chlorophyllide, especially in lip1 epicotyls.
- Observation POR was present as a 36 kDa band in dark-grown wild-type and lip1 epicotyls.
- Observation lip1 stem tissue had more POR than wild-type pea.
- Observation lip1 lacked the 654 nm fluorescing Pchlide form and regular PLBs.
- Intervention effect Light produced a significant amount of chlorophyll in lip1 roots.
