Abstract excerpt

The empty pericarp4 (emp4) gene encodes a mitochondrion-targeted pentatricopeptide repeat (ppr) protein that is involved in the regulation of mitochondrial gene expression and is required for seed development. In homozygous mutant emp4-1 kernels the endosperm is drastically reduced and the embryo is retarded in its development and unable to germinate. With the aim of investigating the role of emp4 during...
