  • Title: Rhythmic regulation of the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein and the small subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase mRNA in rye seedlings.
    Author: Ernst D, Apfelböck A, Bergmann A, Weyrauch C.
    Journal: Photochem Photobiol; 1990 Jul; 52(1):29-33. PubMed ID: 2204946.
    Abstract:
    In etiolated rye seedlings transferred to light the expression of chlorophyll a/b binding protein mRNA varies when the seedlings are grown in a day/night cycle. The fluctuation pattern follows a circadian rhythm. Exposure of 4-day old etiolated seedlings to continuous white light revealed two maxima within the first 24 h before the 24 h cycle period appeared. These first two maxima are also observable after a pulse of white light or after a pulse of red light. These results indicate a possible involvement of phytochrome in the endogenous regulation of the rhythm.
