The Plastome and Chloroplast Biogenesis [PDF]

open access: possible, 1988
The most important feature that distinguishes plants from animals is the possession of chloroplasts. These organelles are responsible for the generation of energy and reducing power used to fix CO2. They are also involved in the metabolism of nitrogen, sulphur, lipids, and some plant hormones.

Plastome phylogenomics of Micromeles (Rosaceae)

Phytotaxa, 2023
Micromeles has been the focus of discussion concerning its relationship with other genera of Sorbus s.l., Maleae, Rosaceae. With the aim to shed light on its circumscription, phylogenetic relationships were investigated using plastomes. The 14 newly sequenced Micromeles plastomes range in size from 159,753 to 160,512 bp, contain 113 unique genes ...

Plastome mutants

Plant Molecular Biology Reporter, 1986
Since the first reports seventy-five years ago on the non-Mendelian inheritance of variegation in plants, chloroplast gene mutations have been useful for genetical and physiological investigations. The mutations have been shown to affect the chloroplast translational apparatus, photosystem I, photosystem II, the cytochrome f/b6 complex, carbon fixation,

Plastid DNA — The Plastome

1980
The development of autotrophic eukaryotic organisms results from a close cooperation between three distinct cellular compartments (using the compartment definition of Schnepf 1966), of nucleus/cytosol, plastids, and mitochondria, each of which contains its own genetic machinery.

When is the Male Plastome eliminated ?

Nature, 1970
PLASTOME mutations result in chloroplast defects which are inherited in a non-Mendelian manner. Because normal and defective chloroplasts can exist in the same cell and be sorted out by somatic segregation, the plastome is considered to be in the chloroplasts themselves, possibly in their DNA. A strictly maternally inherited plastid mutant in Nicotiana

Genetic transformation of the sugar beet plastome

Transgenic Research, 2008
It is very important for the application of chloroplast engineering to extend the range of species in which this technology can be achieved. Here, we describe the development of a chloroplast transformation system for the sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L. ssp. vulgaris, Sugar Beet Group) by biolistic bombardment of leaf petioles.

Influence of ploidy on plastome mutagenesis in Nicotiana

Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1991
A clear influence of ploidy was observed on the frequency of both spontaneous and nitroso-methylurea (NMU) induced, streptomycin-resistant, adventitious shoots developing on leaf explants of Nicotiana tabacum and N. plumbaginifolia. At nearly all NMU levels employed a significantly higher yield of resistant shoots was obtained from haploid compared ...
