An abnormal growth mutant in maize has a defective mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase gene.

The Plant cell - 1 Feb 1990

Newton K J, Knudsen C, Gabay-Laughnan S, Laughnan J R

Abstract excerpt

We describe a new maternally inherited maize mutation, nonchromosomal stripe 5 (NCS5), that adversely affects plant growth and yield. Mutant plants are characterized by reduced height, defective yellow striping on leaves, and aborted kernels on ears. NCS5 striped plants carry both normal and partially deleted versions of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit 2 gene and exhibit greatly reduced levels of...
