A reporter gene system used to study developmental expression of alternative oxidase and isolate mitochondrial retrograde regulation mutants in Arabidopsis.

Abstract excerpt

Perturbation of mitochondrial function causes altered nuclear gene expression in plants. To study this response, called mitochondrial retrograde regulation, and developmental gene expression, a transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana (Col-0) line containing a firefly luciferase gene controlled by a promoter region of the Arabidopsis alternative oxidase 1a gene (AtAOX1a) was created. The transgene and the endogenous gene...
