Abstract excerpt
The mitochondrial ATP-binding cassette transporter ATM3 has been studied in Arabidopsis. Its function, however, is poorly understood in other model plant species. This study reports that the ATM3 is required for cytosolic iron-sulfur cluster assembly and is essential for meristem maintenance in rice (Oryza sativa). The loss of function of OsATM3 is lethal in rice at the four-leaf stage. In the osatm3 T-DNA...
