The localization of nitrite reductase, glutamate synthase and malate metabolism enzymes in Pisum arvense L. roots

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
Centrifugation of a homogenate made from Pisum arvense L. roots in a sucrose density gradient enabled the separation of the plastid fraction from mitochondria and microsomes.

Uncovering the role of the PPR protein PHOTOSYSTEM ONE BIOGENESIS FACTOR6 in splicing chloroplast group II introns

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The P‐class pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) protein PHOTOSYSTEM ONE BIOGENESIS FACTOR (PBF6) forms splicing complexes with other known splicing factors to facilitate chloroplast intron splicing. PBF6 cooperates with other PPR splicing factors to promote the splicing of the same intron through forming respective splicing complexes.

Melatonin seed priming: A climate‐smart, green strategy to enhance abiotic stress tolerance in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes how melatonin seed priming preconditions seeds to enhance tolerance against diverse abiotic stresses. It highlights the underlying mechanisms and proposes an integrative roadmap of advanced molecular and breeding tools to design next‐generation, stress‐smart plants.

Integration of plastids with their hosts: Lessons learned from dinoflagellates.

, 2015
After their endosymbiotic acquisition, plastids become intimately connected with the biology of their host. For example, genes essential for plastid function may be relocated from the genomes of plastids to the host nucleus, and pathways may evolve ...

Reconfiguring biofortification strategies to transform food systems and address micronutrient deficiency of the 21st century

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review explores how to make staple foods and horticultural crops more nutritious, including how artificial intelligence‐based screening of gene banks helps deploy nutritionally rich germplasm into breeding. Genome editing can help develop crops richer in minerals, vitamins, and health‐promoting compounds, supporting healthier diets and more ...

Plastid-Nucleus Distance Alters the Behavior of Stromules

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Plastids send “retrograde” signals to the nucleus to deliver information regarding their physiological status. One open question concerning this signal transfer is how the signal bridges the cytoplasm.

Chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes of Sphaerosorus coelastroides Pascher (Xanthophyceae) from Central Appalachia, Clinch River, Virginia, United States

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract This report describes the isolation and culture of Sphaerosorus coelastroides from the plankton of a freshwater river in the central Appalachian mountain chain. This alga was first observed in a dry freshwater riverbed in Central Europe in 1908 and, since then, has been included in Xanthophyceae surveys from nearly all continents with ...

The Puzzle of Plastid Evolution [PDF]

Current Biology, 2009
A comprehensive understanding of the origin and spread of plastids remains an important yet elusive goal in the field of eukaryotic evolution. Combined with the discovery of new photosynthetic and non-photosynthetic protist lineages, the results of recent taxonomically broad phylogenomic studies suggest that a re-shuffling of higher-level eukaryote ...
