Cloning and molecular characterization of a strawberry fruit ripening-related cDNA corresponding a mRNA for a low-molecular-weight heat-shock protein.

abstract：:The Arabidopsis ga1 mutant has very low levels of endogenous, active gibberellins and thus has an extreme dwarf phenotype; application of GA3 induces stem elongation and flower development. To test the hypothesis that GA action in this system involves changes in gene expression, we have cloned mRNAs whose abundance ch...
