Deletion of the gene encoding the magnesium chelatase I subunit resulted in a novel wheat leaf colour mutant. [PDF]
Summary Leaf colour mutants are ideal germplasm resources for investigating the mechanisms of chlorophyll (Chl) synthesis, chloroplast development and photosynthesis. In this study, we obtained a yellow‐leaf mutant, designated SN288‐2. The variant presented a yellow‐leaf phenotype and halted the development of chloroplasts at the seedling stage, with ...

A high mortality of coconut palms was observed in the coastal areas of Equatorial Guinea. Molecular analyses on 16S rRNA and secA genes detected ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma palmicola’ subgroup 16SrXXII‐A. Strict monitoring and surveillance procedures for early detection of the pathogen are strongly recommended to reduce its impact and further spread in the

Characteristics of a Virescent Cotton Mutant [PDF]
The virescent cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) mutant described here differs from normal cultivated cotton by a single mutation in the nucleus. The mutant exhibits nuclear control of chlorophyll and carotenoid development. Young leaves are distinctly yellow and become green with age.

Plant apocarotenoids: from retrograde signaling to interspecific communication
Summary Carotenoids are isoprenoid compounds synthesized by all photosynthetic and some non‐photosynthetic organisms. They are essential for photosynthesis and contribute to many other aspects of a plant's life. The oxidative breakdown of carotenoids gives rise to the formation of a diverse family of essential metabolites called apocarotenoids.
