Summary

Genetic screens in Arabidopsis thaliana are a plant genetics method used to identify components of light-responsive signal transduction pathways. The cited evidence states that several laboratories devised such screens to dissect pathways associated with various photoreceptor systems.

Usefulness & Problems

Why this is useful

This method is useful for discovering genes and pathway components involved in photoreceptor-mediated plant development. The available evidence supports its use specifically for dissecting light signaling pathways in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Problem solved

It addresses the problem of identifying signal transduction components downstream of plant photoreceptor systems. The cited literature supports this application at the level of pathway dissection but does not provide further procedural detail.
