The transcription of CAB genes, encoding the c hlorophyll a/bb inding proteins, is rapidly
induced in dark-grown Arabidopsis seedlings following a light pulse. The transient induction …

In higher plants, there are wide ranges of biological processes that are controlled through
the circadian clock. In this connection, we have been characterizing a small family of …

Cell-membrane-located receptor kinases play important roles in many plant signal-
transduction pathways. Exciting progress has been made in recent years with the …

Already a proven mechanism for drought resilience, crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is
a specialized type of photosynthesis that maximizes water-use efficiency by means of an …

The term signal transduction refers to the classical paradigm where an external stimulus is
sensed and initiates an increase in second messengers. Each second messenger transmits …

A small family of genes, named ARABIDOPSIS PSEUDO RESPONSE REGULATOR
(APRR), are intriguing with special reference to circadian rhythms in plants, based on the …

Flowering at the appropriate time of year is essential for successful reproduction in plants.
We found that HAP3b in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), a putative CCAAT-binding …

In our search for insertion mutants of Arabidopsis response regulator (ARR) genes, we
identified a candidate for an ARR21 dSpm transposon insertion line in the SLAT collection …

In Arabidopsis thaliana, a number of circadian-associated factors have been identified.
Among those, TOC1 (TIMING OF CAB EXPRESSION 1) is believed to be a component of the …

The roles of auxin and cytokinin in cell cycle reactivation were studied during the first 48 h of
culture of mesophyll protoplasts of Nicotiana tabacum. Using hormone delay and withdrawal …
