The requirement of WHIRLY1 for embryogenesis is dependent on genetic background in maize.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2013

Zhang Ya-Feng, Hou Ming-Ming, Tan Bao-Cai

Abstract excerpt

Plastid gene expression is essential to embryogenesis in higher plants, but the underlying mechanism is obscure. Through molecular characterization of an embryo defective 16 (emb16) locus, here we report that the requirement of plastid translation for embryogenesis is dependent on the genetic background in maize (Zea mays). The emb16 mutation arrests embryogenesis at transition stage and allows the endosperm to...
