Embryonic stem cells can be induced in the laboratory to differentiate into muscle, nerve, pancreatic, and other specialized cell types. It has recently become possible to trigger the dedifferentiation of somatic cells back into pluripotent cells (so-called induced pluripotent stem cells or iPS cells) by artificially enhancing the production of a relatively small number of key transcriptional factors known to be required for maintenance of pluripotency. Examples of such transcription factors are OCT4 and NANOG. The production of OCT4 and NANOG (and other key regulatory proteins) is stimulated by a transcription factor known as FOXP1, a member of the Forkhead family of DNA-binding proteins. There are two isoforms of FOXP1.

Which of the following statement regarding to FOXP1 is incorrect?

Stomata from intact, attached leaves of Arabidopsis illuminated with blue, red, and green light in a growth chamber, increases and decreases their aperture in response to light.

Find the CORRECT statements from the above graph.

i) Stomatal aperture increases when the green light is turned off, and close when the green light is turned on again

ii) Stomata from the phototropin-less double mutant phot1/phot2 respond to blue light and open further when green light is turned off

iii) stomata from the zeaxanthin less mutant npq1 do not respond to blue light and least effect to opening of the stomata further when green light is turned off

iv) the npq1 mutant and phot1/phot2 double mutant response indicate that the green reversal of the blue-light response requires zeaxanthin but also phototropin
