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 …

RNA editing by cytidine (C) to uridine (U) conversions is widespread in plant mitochondria
and chloroplasts. In some plant taxa,“reverse” U-to-C editing also occurs. However, to date …

Genome size and complexity vary tremendously among eukaryotic species and their
organelles. Comparisons across deeply divergent eukaryotic lineages have suggested that …

The mitochondrial genomes of seed plants are unusually large and vary in size by at least
an order of magnitude. Much of this variation occurs within a single family, the …

We report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the flowering plant Amborella
trichopoda. This enormous, 3.9-megabase genome contains six genome equivalents of …

Abstract RNA C-to-U editing in organelles is essential for plant growth and development;
however, the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. Here, we report that …

RNA editing alters plant mitochondrial and chloroplast transcripts by converting specific
cytidines to uridines, which usually results in a change in the amino acid sequence of the …

The genomes in the two energy-converting organelles of plant cells, chloroplasts and
mitochondria, contain numerous 'errors' that are corrected at the level of RNA transcript …

Here, we report a completely sequenced plastome using Illumina/Solexa sequencing-by-
synthesis (SBS) technology. The plastome of Magnolia kwangsiensis Figlar & Noot. is 159 …

Mitochondrial genomes are remarkably diverse among green plants, and the explosion of
genome sequencing over the last 30 years has greatly expanded our understanding of this …
