Abstract excerpt

Mitochondrial run-on assays were used to determine transcriptional rates for nine B37(N) maize mitochondrial genes. Quantitation by radiographic imaging detected a 15-fold range in transcriptional rates; the order of apparent promoter strength was rps12 greater than rrn26 greater than atp6 greate...
