Pale-green phenotype of atl31atl6 double mutant leaves is caused by disruption of 5-aminolevulinic acid biosynthesis in Arabidopsis thaliana.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Arabidopsis ubiquitin ligases ATL31 and homologue ATL6 control the carbon/nitrogen nutrient and pathogen responses. A mutant with the loss-of-function of both atl31 and atl6 developed light intensity-dependent pale-green true leaves, whereas the single ...

Silencing of δ‐aminolevulinic acid dehydratase via virus induced gene silencing promotes callose deposition in plant phloem

Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2022
The δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD) enzyme is an intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway of tetrapyrroles. It combines two δ‐aminolevulinic acid (δ‐ALA) molecules to form the pyrrole, porphobilinogen, an important precursor for plant pigments ...

Influence of lead on the chlorophyll content and on initial steps of its synthesis in greening cucumber seedlings

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
Lead uptake by young cucumber (Couches satires L.) seedlings growing in 10-4 and 10-3 M PbCl2 solution caused δ-aminolevulinic acid synthesis inhibition, reduced the activity of δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase and the chlorophyll centent in the ...
