| Abstract | Angiosperms requires light for multiple aspects of chloroplast development, including chlorophyll synthesis and induction of expression of the mRNAs encoding the major polypeptides of the light-harvesting complex of photosystem II (Lhcb genes). In contrast, many conifers, including pines, firs, and spruces, can accumulate chlorophyll and the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-binding proteins of photosystem II in complete darkness. To understand the factors responsible for the regulation of expression of individual Lhcb mRNAs in the pine Pinus palustris, we have prepared sequence-specific cDNA probes for each of three family members, Lhcb1*Pp1, Lhcb2*Pp1, and Lhcb2*Pp2, and have studied the expression of two of these, Lhcb1*Pp1 and Lhcb2*Pp2, in detail. The levels of expression of each sequence were disparate, and Lhcb1*Pp1-encoded transcripts were the most abundant in the light. Both Lhcb1*Pp1 and Lhcb2*Pp2 mRNAs were expressed in stems and cotyledons, but Lhcb1*Pp1 mRNA was present at about 10-fold lower levels in stems than in cotyledons, in contrast to Lhcb2*Pp2 mRNA, which was expressed at higher levels in stems than in cotyledons. Both Lhcb1*Pp1 and Lhcb2*Pp2 mRNAs were absent in embryos but were expressed during seedling development. The levels increased with age in both the light and the dark and in both cases were about 2-fold higher in the light than in the dark. Despite the expression of Lhcb1*Pp1 and Lhcb2*Pp2 mRNAs during development in darkness, the levels of both mRNAs increased in dark-grown seedlings given red light in the low fluence range within 2 h of treatment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
