Plastid Transcriptomics: An Important Tool For Plastid Functional Genomics

Protein & Peptide Letters, 2021
Plastids 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,

Sequencing complete mitochondrial and plastid genomes

Nature Protocols, 2007
Organelle 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 ...

Diatom plastids: Secondary endocytobiosis, plastid genome and protein import

Physiologia Plantarum, 1999
Plastids of diatoms and other chromophytic algae have four surrounding membranes. In contrast to plastids of green algae, higher plants and red algae chromophytic cells are thought to have evolved by secondary endocytobiosis, i.e. by uptake of a eukaryotic photosynthetic organism by a eukaryotic host cell.

Decoding the Plastid Genome

2017
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.

The Plastid Genomes of Flowering Plants

2014
The 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 ...

Plastid Genomes of Algae

2012
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.

Compositional Properties of Green-Plant Plastid Genomes

Journal of Molecular Evolution, 2005
We studied variation of GC contents among plastid (Pt) genomes of green plants. In the green plants, the GC contents of the whole Pt genomes range from 42.14 to 28.81%. These values are similar to those observed in the mitochondrial (Mt) genomes of the green plants, however, the GC contents in the Pt genomes are not related to those in the Mt genomes ...

Plastid Genome Diversity

2012
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.
