Gene Details:

• MSU gene ID: LOC_Os12g01140
• RAPdb gene ID: Os12g0101800
• Gene Symbol: phot1a
• Genome: MSU7 ,  IRGSP-1.0
• Species: Oryza sativa

Functional Descriptions:

• Rice phot1a mutation reduces plant growth by affecting photosynthetic responses to light during early seedling growth.
• When phot1a mutants were grown under WL (100) and BL (40 miccromol m(-2) s(-1)), they demonstrated a considerable reduction in photosynthetic capacity, which included decreased leaf CO(2) uptake and plant growth.
• We conclude that the defect of Os phot1a affects degradation of chlorophylls and carotenoids, and under photosynthetically active photon fluxes, mutation of phot1a results in loss of photosynthetic capacity owing to the damage of photosystems caused by elevated H(2)O(2) accumulation, leading to a reduction in plant growth.
