Structure of plastid genomes of photosynthetic eukaryotes

Biochemistry (Moscow), 2017
This 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.

Plastid Genomes of Seed Plants

2012
The 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.

Ins and outs of plastid genome evolution

Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1991
Recent 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.

Plastid Genome of Dictyopteris divaricata (Dictyotales, Phaeophyceae): Understanding the Evolution of Plastid Genomes in Brown Algae

Marine Biotechnology, 2017
Dictyotophycidae is a subclass of brown algae containing 395 species that are distributed worldwide. A complete plastid (chloroplast) genome (ptDNA or cpDNA) had not previously been sequenced from this group. In this study, the complete plastid genome of Dictyopteris divaricata (Okamura) Okamura (Dictyotales, Phaeophyceae) was characterized and ...

Engineering the plastid genome of higher plants

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2002
The 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.

From Plastid to Cyanobacterial Genomes

1999
Non-Mendelian inheritance was found based on studies of variegation in higher plants early in this century. Further analysis of variegation revealed that the genetic determinants for these characters were associated with plastids. The demonstration of unique DNA molecules in chloroplasts, half a century later, has led to intensive studies of both the ...

From chloroplasts to “cryptic” plastids: evolution of plastid genomes in parasitic plants

Current Genetics, 2008
To 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.

Extranuclear Inheritance: Plastid Genetics: Manipulation of Plastid Genomes and Biotechnological Applications

2000
When Erwin Baur, at the beginning of this century, proposed that the non-Mendelian inheritance of leaf variegations can be explained with the assumption that chloroplasts (plastids) contain their own genetic information (Baur 1909, 1910), he found himself confronted with the sheer disbelief of many of his colleagues (Hagemann 1999).

Organization and Expression of Plastid Genomes

1982
A green plant contains at least three types of organelles - nucleus, mitochondrion and plastid - which replicate, transcribe and express their genetic information in a coordinated way. The existence of DNA in plastids might have been inferred already from the genetic studies of Baur (1909) and Correns (1909), provided that the DNA-chromosome-gene ...
