| 1. | The most studied of the photoreceptors in plants is phytochrome.
|
| 2. | Plants use phytochrome to detect red and far red light.
|
| 3. | Plants make use of the phytochrome system to sense day length or photoperiod.
|
| 4. | Butler was also responsible for the name, phytochrome.
|
| 5. | Geotropic reaction is regulated by light ( more exactly by phytochrome action ).
|
| 6. | The phytochrome apoprotein is synthesized in the Pr form.
|
| 7. | In plants, bilins also serve as the photopigments of the photoreceptor protein phytochrome.
|
| 8. | A fragment of a bacterial phytochrome now has a solved three-dimensional protein structure.
|
| 9. | Among those sensors is phytochrome, a pigment that is sensitive to certain wavelengths of red light.
|
| 10. | Phytochromes B E are more stable with phyB, the main phytochrome in seedlings grown in the light.
