Abstract
A new protein in the leaves of NK58S and NK58 (Oryza sativa L. subsp.japonica), which can be induced by 10 d-long-day photoperiod (14 h lightid) and cannot be induced by 10 d-short-day photoperiod (10 h light/d), has been found by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. The protein, whose molecular weight and isoelectric point are 36 ku and pH 5.2 respectively, is found to be controlled by phytochrome as shown by the experiment of red light induction-far red light reversion.The existence of this protein in both NK58S and NK58 reflects that some of the responses of NK58S and NK58 might be similar in response to long-day photoperiod, a mild stress.
