Context and Mutation in Gymnosperm Chloroplast DNA. [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2023 Mutations and subsequent repair processes are known to be strongly context-dependent in the flowering-plant chloroplast genome. At least six flanking bases, three on each side, can have an influence on the relative rates of different types of mutation at any given site.

Chloroplast DNA methylation in the kelp Saccharina latissima is determined by origin and possibly influenced by cultivation [PDF]
Evolutionary ApplicationsDNA cytosine methylation is an important epigenetic mechanism in genomic DNA. In most land plants, it is absent in the chloroplast DNA. We detected methylation in the chloroplast DNA of the kelp Saccharina latissima, a non‐model macroalgal species of ...

Polymorphism of Chloroplast DNA in Citrus.
Engei Gakkai zasshi, 1996 Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) diversity was studied in Citrus, Poncirus and Fortunella, based on restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). Total genomic DNA was digested with restriction endonucleases singly or in combination, Southern blotted, and hybridized with a Nicotiana tabacum cpDNA probe.

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.

DNA replication in chloroplasts [PDF]
Journal of Cell Science, 1993 ABSTRACT Chloroplasts contain multiple copies of a DNA molecule (the plastome) that encodes many of the gene products required to perform photosynthesis. The plastome is replicated by nuclear-encoded proteins and its copy number seems to be highly regulated by the cell in a tissue-specific and developmental manner.
