When leaves of a mangrove, Rhizophora mangle, were exposed to an excess of light at chilling temperatures, synthesis of zeaxanthin through violaxanthin de-epoxidation as well as nonphotochemical fluorescence quenching were markedly reduced. The results suggest a protective role of energy dissipation
The relationship between the carotenoid zeaxanthin, formed by violaxanthin de-epoxidation, and nonphotochemical fluorescence quenching (q(NP)) in the light was investigated in leaves of Glycine max during a transient from dark to light in 2% O(2), 0% CO(2) at 100 to 200 micromoles of photons per
The identification of genes and understanding of genes' expression and regulation in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is necessary in order to strategize its improvement using genetic engineering techniques. Generation of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) is useful in rapid isolation, identification
Legume-Rhizobium spp. symbiosis requires signaling between the symbiotic partners and differential expression of plant genes during nodule development. Previously, we cloned a gene encoding a putative β-carotene hydroxylase (GmBCH1) from soybean (Glycine max) whose expression increased during
Shoots of 16-day-old soybeans (Glycine max L. Merr. cv Ransom) were chilled to 10 degrees C for 7 days and monitored for visible signs of damage, ultrastructural changes, perturbations in fluorescence of chlorophyll (Chl), and quantitative changes in Chl a and b and associated pigments. Precautions
