2026-04-24 Coordinated repression of chlorophyll biosynthesis, photosystem assembly, and N-assimilation genes underlie failure in chloroplast development and function in mutant cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) doi:10.57760/sciencedb.cast.00032 en Leaf-color mutations provide valuable models for studying photosynthesis, chlorophyll metabolism, N-metabolism, and related physiological processes. In cassava, white mutants with chlorophyll deficiency, short stature, and pale green to white leaves emerged from self-crossed 18R lines, however the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. We compared white mutants and normal leaf plants across key leaf development stages using physiological, ultrastructural, biochemical, and transcriptomic analyses.  Cassava; Chlorophyll synthesis; Chloroplast development; Mutants; N-metabolism Wen He Habtamu Kefale Huixian Chen Zhaoqin Cai Wanling Wei Haixia Yang Ping Gang Wenbin Li Hengrui Li Mengbin Ruan EMBARGO https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ dataset Science Data Bank
