Knockdown of FIBRILLIN4 gene expression in apple decreases plastoglobule plastoquinone content.

Knockdown of FIBRILLIN4 gene expression in apple decreases plastoglobule plastoquinone content.

Fibrillin4 (FBN4) is a protein component of plastoglobules, which are antioxidant-rich sub-compartments attached to the chloroplast thylakoid membranes. FBN4 is required for normal plant biotic and abiotic stress resistance, including bacterial pathogens, herbicide, high light intensity, and ozone;...
