Abstract excerpt
A WF9 strain of maize with the RD subtype of the S male-sterile cytoplasm (CMS-S) was converted to the inbred M825 nuclear background by recurrent backcrossing. The organization of the mitochondrial genomes of the F1 and succeeding backcross progenies was analyzed and compared with the progenitor...
