Mutational decay and age of chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes transferred recently to angiosperm nuclear chromosomes.

Plant physiology - 1 Jul 2005

Huang Chun Y, Grünheit Nicole, Ahmadinejad Nahal, Timmis Jeremy N, Martin William

Abstract excerpt

Transfers of organelle DNA to the nucleus established several thousand functional genes in eukaryotic chromosomes over evolutionary time. Recent transfers have also contributed nonfunctional plastid (pt)- and mitochondrion (mt)-derived DNA (termed nupts and numts, respectively) to plant nuclear genomes. The two largest transferred organelle genome copies are 131-kb nuptDNA in rice (Oryza sativa) and 262-kb...
