The aim of the present study was to investigate the photosynthetic properties and
transcriptomic profiles of wildtype and chlorophyll (Chl) b-lacking rice (Oryza sativa L.). The …

Photosynthetic and transcriptomic characteristics of a chlorophyll (Chl) b-deficient mutant
type 2b rice (ch14) were investigated in this study. The ultrastructure of chloroplast in ch14 …

Photosynthesis is an essential biological process and a key approach for raising crop yield.
However, photosynthesis in rice is not fully investigated. This study reported the …

Chlorophylls absorb and transfer light energy to the photosynthetic system. Consequently,
chlorophyll content is strongly related to crop biomass and yield. We isolated a rice …

Chlorophyll (Chl) synthase catalyzes esterification of chlorophyllide to complete the last step
of Chl biosynthesis. Although the Chl synthases and the corresponding genes from various …

Chlorophyll (Chl) molecules are essential for harvesting light energy in photosynthesis. A
rice high-chlorophyll mutant (Gc) with significantly increased Chl b was identified previously …

Chinese. 以叶绿素缺乏突变体水稻为材料, 研究其光系统蛋白和叶绿素的合成特性,
以揭示叶绿素的生物合成及其调控的机理. 通过蛋白质电泳, Western 杂交, Northern …

Leaf color is a highly important agronomic trait, and mutants with altered leaf coloration can
serve as excellent models for studies on chloroplast development and chlorophyll …

A single dominant gene Gc controls the trait of high chlorophyll (Chl) content in rice (cultivar
(cv.) Zhenshan 97B). The contents of Chl b and total Chl increased 100% and 25 …

The net photosynthesis and photosynthetic N use efficiency (PNUE) of a rice mutant with
reduced chlorophyll synthesis were much higher than those of its wild type (WT). To …
