Protein function
Encodes a light-labile photoreceptor.
Phenotype
Remarks: hos1 and
phyb mutations have additive effects and the double mutant flowers earlier than either single mutants.
[Lü¾Œ–”¼zaro et al., 2015] Remarks: phyb early-flowering phenotype is suppressed by
co mutation. PHYB acts in the phloem to regulate flowering-time.
[Lü¾Œ–”¼zaro et al., 2015] Overexpressor: PHYB overexpressor shows conflicting results.
[Endo et al., 2005][Bagnall et al., 1995] Single mutant: phyb single mutant is early flowering under both SD and LD conditions.
[Endo et al., 2005][Klose et al., 2012][Monte et al., 2003][Clack et al., 2009][Halliday et al., 2003] Remarks: PHYB represses the expression of
FT in vascular bundles.
[Endo et al., 2005] Function:Regulatory photoreceptor which exists in two forms that are reversibly interconvertible by light: the Pr form that absorbs maximally in the red region of the spectrum and the Pfr form that absorbs maximally in the far-red region. Photoconversion of Pr to Pfr induces an array of morphogenetic responses, whereas reconversion of Pfr to Pr cancels the induction of those responses. Pfr controls the expression of a number of nuclear genes including those encoding the small subunit of ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase, chlorophyll A/B binding protein, protochlorophyllide reductase, rRNA, etc. It also controls the expression of its own gene(s) in a negative feedback fashion. Involved in the flowering time regulation.
