PCR-mediated detection of heteroplasmy in maize mitochondrial mutants.
Division of Biological Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of Missouri-Columbia, Columbia, Missouri 65211 The NCS2 (nonchromosomal stripe) mutation arose in maize plants carrying the CMS-T cytoplasm in a WF9 nuclear background. Heteroplasmic plants impaired by this trait are characterized by palegreen leaf striping and sectors of aborted kernels on the ears. Additionally, overall...
متن کاملDifferential expression of alternative oxidase genes in maize mitochondrial mutants.
We have examined the expression of three alternative oxidase (aox) genes in two types of maize mitochondrial mutants. Nonchromosomal stripe (NCS) mutants carry mitochondrial DNA deletions that affect subunits of respiratory complexes and show constitutively defective growth. Cytoplasmic male-sterile (CMS) mutants have mitochondrial DNA rearrangements, but they are impaired for mitochondrial fun...
متن کاملDetection of genetically modified maize in processed foods sold commercially in Iran by qualitative PCR
Detection of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in food is an important issue for all the subjects involved in food control and customer’s right. Due to the increasing number of GMOs imported to Iran during the past few years, it has become necessary to screen the products in order to determine the identity of the consumed daily foodstuffs. In this study, following extraction of genomic DNA ...

متن کاملExtreme sequence heteroplasmy in bat mitochondrial DNA.
Mitochondrial heteroplasmy is shown to be extensive when amplification products from the mitochondrial control region are cloned and sequenced from a European bat species. In contrast, a mitochondrial ribosomal RNA gene does not exhibit substantial levels of heteroplasmy when analyzed in an identical way. In the bat, heteroplasmy with respect to length as well as sequence seems to be transmitte...
