Defects in a new class of sulfate/anion transporter link sulfur acclimation responses to intracellular glutathione levels and cell cycle control.

abstract：:Winter- and summertime-active desert annual species were grown at different temperatures to assess their capacity for photosynthetic acclimation. Thermal stability of photosynthesis was determined from responses of chlorophyll fluorescence to increased temperature. Photosynthesis in winter ephemerals grown at 28 degre...
