Disruption of the single-copy GOLDEN2-like gene underlies the classical yellow and yellow-mutable mutations of Japanese morning glory

GOLDEN2-like (GLK) transcription factors are key regulators of chloroplast differentiation and photosynthetic gene expression.

GOLDEN2-like (GLK) transcription factors are key regulators of chloroplast differentiation and photosynthetic gene expression. The classical yellow mutation in Japanese morning glory (Ipomoea nil) produces yellowish-green leaves, whereas an unstable allele, yellow-mutable,…
