gene and lay the foundation for the study of the molecular mechanism of chlorophyll …

The xantha trait of a yellow leaf rice mutant (HYB), controlled epigenetically by elevated
CHG methylation of the genomes uncoupled 4 (OsGUN4) promoter, has reduced chlorophyll …

Magnesium-protoporphyrin IX monomethyl ester cyclase (MPEC) catalyzes the conversion
of MPME to divinyl protochlorophyllide (DVpchlide). This is an essential enzyme during …

Leaf chlorophyll content is an important physiological indicator of plant growth, metabolism
and nutritional status, and it is highly correlated with leaf nitrogen content and …

NADPH: protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (POR) catalyzes photoreduction of
protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) to chlorophyllide in chlorophyll (Chl) synthesis, and is required …

Rice leaf color variation is a morphological phenotype that is valuable in studying plant
metabolism and physiology. Besides, the rice leaf color phenotype can also be utilized in the …

Chloroplast is a crucial organelle for plant photosynthesis and maintaining normal life
activities in higher plants. Although some genes related to chloroplast development and …

Chloroplasts is the site for photosynthesis, which is the main primary source of energy for
plants. Golden2-like (GLK) is a key transcription factor that regulates chloroplast …
