Plastid Transcriptomics: An Important Tool For Plastid Functional Genomics
Protein & Peptide Letters, 2021Plastids in higher plants carry out specialized roles such as photosynthesis, nitrogen assimilation, biosynthesis of amino acids, fatty acids, isoprenoids, and various metabolites. Plastids arise from undifferentiated precursors known as proplastids, which are found in the root and shoot meristems. They are highly dynamic as they change their number,

Corrected sequence of the wheat plastid genome
Comptes Rendus - Biologies, 2014 Wheat is the most important cereal in the world in terms of acreage and productivity. We sequenced and assembled the plastid genome of one Egyptian wheat cultivar using next-generation sequence data. The size of the plastid genome is 133,873 bp, which is 672 bp smaller than the published plastid genome of “Chinese Spring” cultivar,

The Plastid Genomes of Flowering Plants
2014The plastid genome (plastome) has proved a valuable source of data for evaluating evolutionary relationships among angiosperms. Through basic and applied approaches, plastid transformation technology offers the potential to understand and improve plant productivity, providing food, fiber, energy and medicines to meet the needs of a burgeoning global ...

Sequencing complete mitochondrial and plastid genomes
Nature Protocols, 2007Organelle genomics has become an increasingly important research field, with applications in molecular modeling, phylogeny, taxonomy, population genetics and biodiversity. Typically, research projects involve the determination and comparative analysis of complete mitochondrial and plastid genome sequences, either from closely related species or from a ...

Plastids are membrane-bound organelles which have their own genome, known as plastome, that encodes various genes involved in the production of energy for the cells. Similar to mitochondrial genomes, plastomes also exhibit disparate architectures with variable structure and content.

Algae are characterized by the presence of plastids (chloroplasts), which are organelles of cyanobacterial origin. Plastids have their own genome, machineries for replication, transcription and translation, and are the site of photosynthesis (except in secondarily non-photosynthetic species) and a variety of other biological functions.

Biparental plastid inheritance and its implications in plastid genome engineering
Plant Cell ReportsThis review discusses the mechanism of the inherirance of plastids (and other organelles), where maternal inhertiance is predominat. This inheritance can be shifted to be biparental by modulating genetic and environmental factors, which can have implications in plant fitness and plastid genome engneering to attain homoplastomic plants in fewer ...

Ins and outs of plastid genome evolution
Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1991Recent findings have established cracks in the straight-laced image of the plastid genome as a molecule whose sole function is photosynthesis and whose gene content is highly conserved. Genes for numerous non-photosynthetic functions have been identified.

Engineering the plastid genome of higher plants
Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2002The plastid genome of higher plants is an attractive target for engineering because it provides readily obtainable high protein levels, the feasibility of expressing multiple proteins from polycistronic mRNAs and gene containment through the lack of pollen transmission.

Structure of plastid genomes of photosynthetic eukaryotes
Biochemistry (Moscow), 2017This review presents current views on the plastid genomes of higher plants and summarizes data on the size, structural organization, gene content, and other features of plastid DNAs. Special emphasis is placed on the properties of organization of land plant plastid genomes (nucleoids) that distinguish them from bacterial genomes.
