A Re-Examination of Reported Changes in Protein Composition of Leaves ofAmaranthus caudatusduring Floral Induction

摘要

Changes in the protein composition of leaves of the short day plantAmaranthus caudatusf. caudatus were investigated following exposure of the plants to photoperiodic conditions that induce flowering. Contrary to a previous report, no obvious changes were detected in the leaf proteins by SDS-PAGE and silver staining.
