THE BIOLOGY OF PLANT MITOCHONDRIA [PDF]
existence of mitochondria in plant cells was first described by Meves (1904) who observed them in the pollen nurse cells of the Nymphaeceae. The presence of mitochondria in plant cells was subsequently confirmed by a number of investigators. The life history of mitochondria remained obscure however because of the cytologists’ inability to distinguish ...

A Genetic Map and Linkage Panel for the Large-fruited Fresh-market Tomato
Genetic maps saturated with genetic markers are useful for genetic research and crop breeding; however, the genetic map for the large-fruited fresh-market tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) has never been constructed, and the recombination frequency between ...
