...... differentiation and silique formation on prolonged growth in dark. In light, the bls1 mutant is dwarf and develops a short root, compact rosette, with reduced trichome number, and exhibits delayed bolting. The activity of the BR inducible TCH4 and auxin inducible SAUR promoters, fused with GUS gene, is also altered in seedlings harbouring bls1 mutant background. In addition, the bls1 mutant is hypersensitive to metabolizable sugars. The short hypocotyl phenotype in dark, short ......
