General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function a dxr gene T-DNA insertion mutant shows albino and dwarf phenotype. The mutant does not bolt, has a significantly reduced number of trichomes and most of the stomata cannot close normally in the leaves. Two transgenic co-suppression lines produce more yellow inflorescences and albino sepals with no trichomes. The transcription levels of genes involved in trichome initiation are strongly affected in the mutants. Exogenous application of gibberellic acid GA3 can partially rescue the dwarf phenotype and the trichome initiation of the insertion mutant, and exogenous application of abscisic acid can rescue the stomata closure defect Arabidopsis thaliana
