Rapid evolution of post-transcriptionally regulated RESTORER OF FERTILITY-LIKE genes in the genus Arabidopsis

Creator:

Jogdeo, Sanjuro

Abstract:

The Pentatricopeptide Repeat (PPR) gene family produces RNA-binding proteins that target organellar transcripts. The PPR family is expanded in land plants, with nearly 450 genes identified in Arabidopsis thaliana. In plants with a Cytoplasmic Male Sterility (CMS) phenotype, members of the PPR family can act as a RESTORER OF FERTILITY...
