Abstract

The mutation of a nuclear gene in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) plants results in a reduced light-dependent development of chloroplast fine structure, soluble protein, ribulose-1, 5-diP carboxylase, NADP-glyceraldehyde-3-P dehydrogenase, fructose-1, 6-diP aldolase, glycerate-3-P kinase, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase, malate dehydrogenase, and dark respiration during the 72-hour lag period of chlorophyll synthesis in dark-grown leaves exposed to continuous light. The mutation has pleiotropic affects...
