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 ...

Plastid Genomes of Seed Plants
Advances in Photosynthesis and Respiration, 2012The field of comparative plastid genomics has burgeoned during the past decade, largely due to the availability of rapid, less expensive genome sequencing technologies. Currently there are 200 plastid genomes (plastomes) publicly available with 65% of these from seed plants.

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.

From Chloroplasts to “Cryptic” Plastids: Evolution of Plastid Genomes in Parasitic Plants
Current Genetics, 2008To date, more than 130 plastid genomes (plastomes) have been completely sequenced. Of those, 12 are strongly reduced plastid genomes from heterotrophic plants or plant-related species that exhibit a parasitic lifestyle. Half of these species are land plants while the other half consists of unicellular species that have evolved from photosynthetic algae.

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.

Most living plant cells contain plastids, which harbour their own DNA: the plastome. Plastomes are significantly less diverse than nuclear genomes, but this lower diversity has the advantage that comparisons can be made across all clades of green plants.
