Abstract

Chlorophyll-deficient and virescent mutants are nonlethal and similar in great reduction in chlorophyll concentration, higher chlorophyll a/b ratio, low protein composition on thylakoid membrane, immature development of thylakoid membrane, high frequency of whorl lammellae, great change of chlorophyll-protein complexes and sensitivity to temperature sensitivity of these two mutants may be the results of the above deficiencies. According to the response to environmental alterations, chlorophyll-deficient mutants can be placed into two groups: one just adjusts the chlorophyll content, whereas the other simultaneously adjust both chlorophyll content and a/b ratio.
