Abstract excerpt
In higher plants, chloroplasts carry out many important functions, and normal chloroplast development is required for embryogenesis. Numerous chloroplast-targeted proteins involved in embryogenesis have been identified. Nevertheless, their functions remain unclear. In this study, a chloroplast-localized protein, EMB2738, was reported to be involved in Arabidopsis embryogenesis. EMB2738 knockout led to defective...
