isolation of Wheat Chloroplasts and Chloroplast DNA
2003Chloroplasts in common with other plastids and mitochondria have their own nucleic material, in the form of multiple copies of a circular DNA molecule, normally of 120-160 kbp.

The discovery that chloroplasts have semi-autonomous genetic systems has led to many insights into the biogenesis of these organelles and their evolution from free-living photosynthetic bacteria. Recent developments of our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of translation in chloroplasts suggest selective pressures that have maintained the 100 ...

The inheritance of genes in mitochondria and chloroplasts: laws, mechanisms, and models.
Annual Review of Genetics, 2001The inheritance of mitochondrial and chloroplast genes differs from that of nuclear genes in showing vegetative segregation, uniparental inheritance, intracellular selection, and reduced recombination. Vegetative segregation and some cases of uniparental

Annual Review of Plant Biology, 2003
The study of chloroplast movement made a quantum leap at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Research based on reverse-genetic approaches using targeted mutants has brought new concepts to this field. One of the most exciting findings has been the discovery of photoreceptors for both accumulation and avoidance responses in Arabidopsis and in ...

In this chapter we briefly review the developmental history and current research status of chloroplast transformation and introduce the merits of chloroplast transformation as compared with the nuclear genome transformation. Furthermore, according to the chloroplast transformation achieved in oilseed rape (Brassica napus), we introduce the preparation ...

Chloroplast biosystematics: Chloroplast DNA as a molecular probe
Biosystems, 1985The classification of plants has traditionally been dependent upon the comparative analysis of morphological and biochemical data. In this paper the use of molecular probe analysis of chloroplast DNA (ctDNA) is used to expand the data base used in taxonomic studies.

Chloroplast movement is important for plant survival under high light and for efficient photosynthesis under low light. This review introduces recent knowledge on chloroplast movement and shows how to analyze the responses and the moving mechanisms, potentially inspiring research in this field.

The possession of at least one form of plastid within its cytoplasm has been suggested as the feature which most clearly distinguishes a eukaryotic plant cell from an animal cell. Certainly no living cell of a higher plant has so far been described which completely lacks plastids.
