How a simple chloroplast psbA gene mutation changed world agriculture [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Atrazine as a weed control tactic profoundly changed world agriculture. Long-term use revealed resistant biotypes, R, with a single base pair mutation of the chloroplast psbA gene. The R phenotype emerged from a sequential cascade of pleiotropic effects from the plastid to the whole plant.

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.Abstract Seagrasses are important foundation species, which support coastal biodiversity and provide socioeconomic benefits. However, seagrasses are threatened by anthropogenic changes, including the elevated temperature associated with marine heatwaves (MHWs) and light limitation from eutrophication or increased sedimentation.

The complete chloroplast genome sequence of Chlorella vulgaris and phylogenetic analysis
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020 To understand the process of chloroplast genome evolution, information on repeated sequences, intergenic regions, and pseudogenes in chloroplast DNA is extremely helpful.

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.Abstract Understanding dissolved concentrations of the essential coenzyme thiamin (vitamin B1) can provide insights into the biological controls on highly productive upwelling systems such as the California Current Ecosystem. To connect thiamin availability with microbial communities in the California Current Ecosystem, we measured concentrations of ...

Development of Chloroplast Genomic Resources for Oryza Species Discrimination
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017 Rice is the most important crop in the world as the staple food for over half of the population. The wild species of Oryza represent an enormous gene pool for genetic improvement of rice cultivars.

A model of chloroplast growth regulation in mesophyll cells [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Chloroplasts regulate their growth to optimize photosynthesis. Quantitative data shows that the ratio of total chloroplast area to mesophyll cell area is constant across different cells within a single species, and also across species. Wild-type chloroplasts exhibit little scatter around this trend; highly irregularly-shaped mutant chloroplasts exhibit

Temperature‐dependent growth and activity in a globally distributed nitrogen‐fixing haptophyte
Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.Abstract Dinitrogen (N2)‐fixing microorganisms play a crucial role in supplying nitrogen (N) to the oceans by converting atmospheric N2 into bioavailable N. N2 fixation was thought to be limited to warm oligotrophic ocean waters, but the association between the N2‐fixing UCYN‐A cyanobacterium and specific haptophytes, including Braarudosphaera ...

Gene Similarity-based Approaches for Determining Core-Genes of Chloroplasts [PDF]
, 2014 In computational biology and bioinformatics, the manner to understand evolution processes within various related organisms paid a lot of attention these last decades. However, accurate methodologies are still needed to discover genes content evolution. In a previous work, two novel approaches based on sequence similarities and genes features have been ...

Dual roles for CND1 in maintenance of nuclear and chloroplast genome stability in plants
Cell Reports, 2023 Summary: The coordination of chloroplast and nuclear genome status is critical for plant cell function. Here, we report that Arabidopsis CHLOROPLAST AND NUCLEUS DUAL-LOCALIZED PROTEIN 1 (CND1) maintains genome stability in the chloroplast and the nucleus.
