Score: 15.00 | Title: Isolation and characterization of PHYC gene from Stellaria longipes : differential expression regulated by different red/far-red light ratios and photoperiods .
| Author: Li WZ Chinnappa CC .
| Journal: Planta Citation: V : 220 ( 2 ) P : 318-30 Year: 2004 Type: ARTICLE | Literature: oryza Field: abstract Doc ID: pub15290294 Accession (PMID): 15290294 | Abstract: We have cloned and characterized the phytochrome C ( PHYC ) gene from Stellaria longipes .
The PHYC gene is composed of a 110-bp 5-untranslated leader sequence , a 3 , 342-bp coding region , and a 351-bp 3-untranslated sequence .
The Stellaria PHYC contains three long introns within the coding region at conserved locations as in most angiosperm PHY genes .
DNA blot analysis indicates that the Stellaria genome contains a single copy of PHYC .
Stellaria PHYC shares 60% , 58% , and 57% deduced amino acid identities with rice , Sorghum , and Arabidopsis PHYC , respectively .
Phylogenetic analysis indicates that Stellaria PHYC is located in the dicot branch , but is divergent from Arabidopsis PHYC .
The Stellaria PHYC is constitutively expressed in different plant organs , though the level of PHYC gene transcript in roots is slightly higher than in flowers , leaves , and stems .
When 2-week old seedlings grown in the dark were exposed to constant white light , PHYC mRNA quickly accumulates within 1-12 h .
When plants grown in darkness for 7 days were exposed to different red/far-red light ( R/FR ) ratios , the levels of PHYC mRNA at R/FR = 0 . 7 are much lower than under R/FR = 3 . 5 .
The levels of PHYC mRNA under short-day ( SD ) photoperiod are higher than under long-day ( LD ) photoperiod .
Plants under SD conditions do not elongate , and are only about 1 . 7 cm tall at 19 days .
In contrast , plants under LD conditions elongate with an average height of 21 . 2 cm at 19 days .
The plants do not flower under SD conditions , but do so at 18-19 days under LD conditions .
These results indicate that under SD conditions the high level of PHYC mRNA may inhibit stem elongation and flower initiation .
In contrast , under LD conditions the high level of PHYC mRNA may promote stem elongation and flowering .

Score: 7.00 | Title: Distinct and cooperative functions of phytochromes A , B , and C in the control of deetiolation and flowering in rice .
| Author: Takano M Inagaki N Xie X Yuzurihara N Hihara F Ishizuka T Yano M Nishimura M Miyao A Hirochika H Shinomura T | Journal: Plant Cell Citation: V : 17 ( 12 ) P : 3311-25 Year: 2005 Type: ARTICLE | Literature: oryza Field: abstract Doc ID: pub16278346 Accession (PMID): 16278346 | Abstract: We have isolated phytochrome B ( phyB ) and phyC mutants from rice ( Oryza sativa ) and have produced all combinations of double mutants .
Seedlings of phyB and phyB phyC mutants exhibited a partial loss of sensitivity to continuous red light ( Rc ) but still showed significant deetiolation responses .
The responses to Rc were completely canceled in phyA phyB double mutants .
These results indicate that phyA and phyB act in a highly redundant manner to control deetiolation under Rc .
Under continuous far-red light ( FRc ) , phyA mutants showed partially impaired deetiolation , and phyA phyC double mutants showed no significant residual phytochrome responses , indicating that not only phyA but also phyC is involved in the photoperception of FRc in rice .
Interestingly , the phyB phyC double mutant displayed clear R/FR reversibility in the pulse irradiation experiments , indicating that both phyA and phyB can mediate the low-fluence response for gene expression .
Rice is a short-day plant , and we found that mutation in either phyB or phyC caused moderate early flowering under the long-day photoperiod , while monogenic phyA mutation had little effect on the flowering time .
The phyA mutation , however , in combination with phyB or phyC mutation caused dramatic early flowering . | Matching Sentences: [ Sen. 5, subscore: 2.00 ]: Under continuous far-red light ( FRc ) , phyA mutants showed partially impaired deetiolation , and phyA phyC double mutants showed no significant residual phytochrome responses , indicating that not only phyA but also phyC is involved in the photoperception of FRc in rice .

Score: 6.00 | Title: Comprehensive metabolite profiling of phyA phyB phyC triple mutants to reveal their associated metabolic phenotype in rice leaves .
| Author: Jumtee K Okazawa A Harada K Fukusaki E Takano M Kobayashi A | Journal: J Biosci Bioeng Citation: V : 108 P : 151-9 Year: 2009 Type: MEDLINE | Literature: oryza Field: abstract Doc ID: pub19619864 Accession (PMID): 19619864 | Abstract: The phytochrome photoreceptors regulate plant growth and development throughout their life cycle .
Rice ( Oryza sativa ) possesses three phytochromes , phyA , phyB , and phyC .
Physiological , genetic , and biochemical analyses of null mutants of each phytochrome have revealed the function of each in rice .
However , few studies have investigated the relationship between phytochrome signaling and metabolism .
In the present study , non-targeted metabolite analysis by gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry ( GC/TOF-MS ) and targeted metabolite analysis by capillary electrophoresis electrospray ionization mass spectrometry ( CE/ESI-MS ) were employed to investigate metabolic changes in rice phyA phyB phyC triple mutants .
Distinct metabolic profiles between phyA phyB phyC triple mutants and the wild type ( WT ) , as well as those between young and mature leaf blades , could be clearly observed by principal component analysis ( PCA ) .
The metabolite profiles indicated high accumulation of amino acids , organic acids , sugars , sugar phosphates , and nucleotides in the leaf blades of phyA phyB phyC triple mutants , especially in the young leaves , compared with those in the WT .
Remarkable overaccumulation of monosaccharide , such as glucose ( 53 . 4-fold ) , fructose ( 42 . 5-fold ) , and galactose ( 24 . 5-fold ) , was observed in young leaves of phyA phyB phyC triple mutants .
These metabolic phenotypes suggest that sugar metabolism , carbon partitioning , sugar transport , or some combination of these is impaired in the phyA phyB phyC triple mutants , and conversely , that phytochromes have crucial roles in sugar metabolism .
