A Complement of Ten Essential and Pleiotropic Arabidopsis COP/DET/FUS Genes Is Necessary for Repression of Photomorphogenesis in Darkness

Two genetic screens, one for mutations resulting in photomorphogenic
development in darkness and the other for mutants with fusca phenotype,
have thus far identified six pleiotropic Arabidopsis COP/DET/FUS genes.
Here, we characterized representative mutants that define four additional
pleiotropic photomorphogenic loci and a null mutant allele of the
previously defined DET1 locus. Dark-grown seedlings homozygous for these
recessive mutations exhibit short hypocotyls and expanded cotyledons and
are lethal before reaching reproductive development. Dark-grown mutant
seedlings also display characteristic photomorphogenic cellular
differentiation and elevated expression of light-inducible genes. In
addition, analyses of plastids from dark-grown mutants reveal partial
chloroplast differentiation and absence of etioplast development. Root
vascular bundle cells of light-grown mutant seedlings develop chloroplasts,
suggesting that these FUS gene products are important for suppression of
chloroplast differentiation in light-grown roots. Double-mutant analyses
indicate that these pleiotropic cop/det/fus mutations are epistatic to
mutations in phytochromes, a blue-light photoreceptor, and a downstream
regulatory component, HY5. Therefore, there is a complement of at least 10
essential and pleiotropic Arabidopsis genes that are necessary for
repression of photomorphogenic development.
