Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method in the field of agricultural science and technology, in particular to a mutant protein CRY1 utilizing plant cryptochrome G380R Methods of creating dwarf plants as well as early flowering. Background technique
[0002] Light plays an important role in regulating the growth and development of plants and the physiology of animals. In the solar spectrum, the blue light / A region ultraviolet light, red light, and far red light are the main bands that regulate plant growth and development. CRYPTOCHROME (CRY), also known as cryptochrome, is ubiquitous in blue light / A region ultraviolet light photoreceptor in animals and plants. The CRY proteins of animals and plants all have a conserved N-terminal domain, called the PHR domain ( Ph otolyase- R elated Region). These PHR domains have high homology with the ancient DNA photolyase (photolyase) family, belong to a protein superfamily (photolyase / CRY), and have very similar pro...
