“…PCC 7942, a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was identified in the atpA gene, which enhanced ATP synthase contents and activity, conferring improved photosynthetic efficiency as well as carbon fixation rate, especially under stress conditions (Lou et al, 2018). Certain point mutations in the AtpB gene of the CF1 complex, on the other hand, appear to be deleterious for the assembly of the entire complex and normal plant growth, so that mutants spontaneously reverted to the wild type gene sequence (Robertson et al, 1989; Malinova et al, 2021). Additionally, a SNP of a threonine residue in the β‐subunit of CF1 (T86A in AtpB ) was identified in cold‐tolerant cucumber species when the gene sequences were compared to cold‐susceptible species.…”
