Chlorophyll content in Zm-chlH mutants.
| Chlorophyll per 1 g fresh weight [μg] |
|||
|---|---|---|---|
| Chlorophyll a | Chlorophyll b | Chlorophyll a + b | |
| wild-type | 771.8 ± 80.3 | 163.4 ± 2.8 | 935.2 ± 82.9 |
| Zm-chlH-1/-2 | 82.1 ± 12.3 | 1.7 ± 1.8 | 83.8 ± 14.1 |
| % wild-type | 10.6 | 1.0 | 9.0 |
| wild-type | 937.6 ± 180.0 | 193.4 ± 39.4 | 1131.0 ± 219.4 |
| Zm-chlH-3 | 0.1 ± 0.1 | 0.1 ± 0.1 | 0.2 ± 0.2 |
| % wild-type | 0.0 | 0.1 | 0.0 |
Chlorophyll a and b levels were measured for Zm-chlH-1/-2 and Zm-chlH-3 mutants and wild-type siblings as described in Section “Materials and Methods”.
Mean values and standard deviations are shown for three biological replicates.
