Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Arabidopsis thaliana mRNA level increases when dark-grown seedlings come from dark to light, which leads to a deetiolation and the forming of chloroplasts, similar results can be observed with seedlings growing in the dark when treated with paclobutrazol, an inhibitor of the regulatory hormone gibberellin up
