Leaf-color mutants have been extensively studied in rice, and many corresponding genes
have been identified up to now. However, leaf-color mutation mechanisms are diverse and …

Magnesium protoporphyrin IX methyltransferase (ChlM) catalyzes the formation of
magnesium protoporphyrin IX monomethylester (MgPME) from magnesium protoporphyrin …

Soybean (Glycine max) seed yields rely on the efficiency of photosynthesis, which is poorly
understood in soybean. Chlorophyll, the major light harvesting pigment, is crucial for …

Setaria italica and its wild ancestor Setaria viridis are emerging as model systems for
genetics and functional genomics research. However, few systematic gene mapping or …

Abstract Herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora Pall.) is one of the color-leaved ornamental
spring plants, with graceful appearance and splendid color. However, the underlying …

Ferredoxins (Fds) are small iron-sulfur proteins that mediate electron transfer in a wide
range of metabolic reactions. Besides Fds, there is a type of Fd-like proteins designated as …

Leaf color mutants are ideal materials for studying mechanisms of plant such as
photosynthesis, photorespiration, the pigment biosynthesis, and some other agronomic …

The growth and development of plants are dependent on the interaction between carbon
and nitrogen metabolism. Essential information about the metabolic regulation of carbon …

Leaf coloration changes evoke different photosynthetic responses among different poplar
cultivars. The aim of this study is to investigate the photosynthetic difference between a red …

Leaf color mutants are the ideal materials to explore the pathways of chlorophyll
metabolism, chloroplast development and photosynthesis system. In this study, a new …
