Chloroplast in Plant-Virus Interaction
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 In plants, the chloroplast is the organelle that conducts photosynthesis. It has been known that chloroplast is involved in virus infection of plants for approximate 70 years.

Chloroplast RNA polymerases: Role in chloroplast biogenesis
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2015 Plastid genes are transcribed by two types of RNA polymerase in angiosperms: the bacterial type plastid-encoded RNA polymerase (PEP) and one (RPOTp in monocots) or two (RPOTp and RPOTmp in dicots) nuclear-encoded RNA polymerase(s) (NEP). PEP is a bacterial-type multisubunit enzyme composed of core subunits (coded for by the plastid rpoA, rpoB, rpoC1 ...

Effects of Salinity Stress on Chloroplast Structure and Function
Cells, 2021 Salinity is a growing problem affecting soils and agriculture in many parts of the world. The presence of salt in plant cells disrupts many basic metabolic processes, contributing to severe negative effects on plant development and growth.

New Phytologist, 2021 Chloroplasts are best known for their role in photosynthesis, but they also allow nitrogen and sulphur assimilation, amino acid, fatty acid, nucleotide and hormone synthesis. How chloroplasts develop is therefore relevant to these diverse and fundamental

Plant Biotechnology Journal, 2021 Summary Free‐living cyanobacteria were entrapped by eukaryotic cells ~2 billion years ago, ultimately giving rise to chloroplasts. After a century of debate, the presence of chloroplast DNA was demonstrated in the 1960s.

SYNTHESIS OF CHLOROPLAST DNA IN ISOLATED CHLOROPLASTS [PDF]
The Journal of Cell Biology, 1968 Chloroplasts isolated from Euglena gracilis incorporated both tritiated thymidine 5'-triphosphate and tritiated deoxyadenosine 5'-triphosphate into an acid-stable fraction. The incorporation was dependent on the presence of all four deoxynucleoside triphosphates and was sensitive to treatment with deoxyribonuclease and actinomycin D.

Gene introduction approaches in chloroplast transformation and its applications
Journal of Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, 2021 Background Chloroplast is a type of plastid that is believed to be originated from ancestral cyanobacteria. Chloroplast besides being a major component for photosynthesis, also takes part in another major plant metabolism, making it one of the major ...

Phylogenic study of Lemnoideae (duckweeds) through complete chloroplast genomes for eight accessions [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Background Phylogenetic relationship within different genera of Lemnoideae, a kind of small aquatic monocotyledonous plants, was not well resolved, using either morphological characters or traditional markers.
