The central dogma in biology defines the flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to
protein. Accordingly, RNA molecules generally accurately follow the sequences of the genes …

Pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) proteins constitute one of the largest protein families in land
plants, with more than 400 members in most species. Over the past decade, much has been …

Plant organellar RNA metabolism is run by a multitude of nucleus-encoded RNA-binding
proteins (RBPs) that control RNA stability, processing, and degradation. In chloroplasts and …

In many plant species, male-sterile female lines with cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) or
nuclear-controlled environment-sensitive genic male sterility (EGMS) have long been used …

The pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) proteins form one of the largest protein families in land
plants. They are characterised by tandem 30–40 amino acid motifs that form an extended …

The pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) is a helical repeat motif found in an exceptionally large
family of RNA–binding proteins that functions in mitochondrial and chloroplast gene …

The study of reproductive isolation and species barriers frequently focuses on mitochondrial
genomes and has produced two alternative and almost diametrically opposed narratives. On …

RNA editing alters the identity of nucleotides in RNA molecules such that the information for
a protein in the mRNA differs from the prediction of the genomic DNA. In chloroplasts and …

With the increasing appreciation for the crucial roles that microbial symbionts play in the
development and fitness of plant and animal hosts, there has been a recent push to interpret …

Hybrid wheat varieties give higher yields than conventional lines but are difficult to produce
due to a lack of effective control of male fertility in breeding lines. One promising system …
