What will be the effect light in GA biosynthesis?
a) Light basically activates the GA 3β-hydroxylase which
adds a hydroxyl group (OH) to carbon 3 of GA20 and convert GA20 to GA1
b) light-induced increase in the transcription of the gene
for GA3ox, which converts GA20 to GA1
c) light-induced increase in the transcription of the gene
for GA2ox, which converts GA20 to
GA29
d) light-induced decreases the transcription of the gene for GA3ox, which converts GA20 to GA1

Pseudomonas methylotrophus is used to produce single-cell
protein from methanol in a 1000 m3 pressure-cycle airlift fermenter.
The biomass yield from substrate is 0.41 g g- 1, KS is
0.7 mg l- 1, and the maximum specific growth rate is 0.44 h- 1.
The medium contains 4% (w/v) methanol. A substrate conversion of 98% is
desirable. The reactor may be operated either in batch or continuous mode. If
operated in batch, an inoculum of 0.01% (w/v) is used and the downtime between
batches is 20 h. If operated continuously, a downtime of 25 d is expected per
year. Neglecting maintenance requirements, compare the annual biomass
production from batch and continuous reactors?
