Phytochrome
✓
Answer
$1.$ These are proteinaceous pigments present
$2.$ Phytochrome exists in two interconvertible forms. $P_r$ and $P_{fr}.$
$3.$ Phytochromes are located in cell membranes of chlorophyllous cells.
$4.$ When $P_{fr}$ absorbs red light it is converted to $P_r.$
$5. \ P_{fr}$ is accumulated in plants during daytime and inhibits flowering in $\text{SDP}$ but initiates flowering in $\text{LDP}$
