HCAR Is a Limitation Factor for Chlorophyll Cycle and Chlorophyll b Degradation in Chlorophyll-b-Overproducing Plants [PDF]
The chlorophyll (Chl) cycle is the metabolic pathway for Chl a and Chl b inter-conversion. In this pathway, Chl b is synthesized from Chl a by the catalyzing action of chlorophyllide a oxygenase (CAO).
