Studies of growth & metabolism of a barley mutant lacking chlorophyll b.
In an earlier paper (7) the chlorophyll composition of a number of chlorina mutants of barley obtained from D. W. Robertson (10) were described and it was then pointed out that one of the mutants appeared to be entirely lacking in chlorophyll b. Thus, it was of considerable interest to learn whether the chlorophyll b deficiency was affecting the photosynthetic activity of this mutant. Comparati...
متن کاملChlorophyll-Protein Complexes from Euglena gracilis and Mutants Deficient in Chlorophyll b: I. Pigment Composition.
The use of n-octyl-beta-d-glucopyranoside along with sodium dodecyl sulfate improves the retention of chlorophyll (Chl) by chlorophyll-protein complexes (CPs) prepared from thylakoids of Euglena gracilis Klebs var bacillaris Cori and yields several additional complexes. Thylakoids from wild-type (WT) cells, solubilized in these detergents and subjected to polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at 0...
متن کاملChloramphenicol stimulation of light harvesting chlorophyll protein complex accumulation in a chlorophyll B deficient wheat mutant.
As compared with normal wheat leaves, the chlorina wheat mutant, designated CD3, has a high chlorophyll a/b ratio and a deficiency in the light harvesting chlorophyll protein (LHCP) complex. Applications of 200 micrograms per milliliter of d-threo-chloramphenicol to etiolated seedlings decreased the chlorophyll a/b ratio and increased the accumulation of the 27 kilodalton LHCP polypeptide and t...
متن کاملCharacterization of a Thermo-Inducible Chlorophyll-Deficient Mutant in Barley
Leaf color is an important trait for not only controlling crop yield but also monitoring plant status under temperature stress. In this study, a thermo-inducible chlorophyll-deficient mutant, named V-V-Y, was identified from a gamma-radiated population of the barley variety Vlamingh. The leaves of the mutant were green under normal growing temperature but turned yellowish under high temperature...
متن کاملChlorophyll a oxygenase (CAO) is involved in chlorophyll b formation from chlorophyll a.
Chlorophyll b is an ubiquitous accessory pigment in land plants, green algae, and prochlorophytes. Its biosynthesis plays a key role in the adaptation to various light environments. We isolated six chlorophyll b-less mutants by insertional mutagenesis by using the nitrate reductase or argininosuccinate lyase genes as tags and examined the rearrangement of mutant genomes. We found that an overla...
