Abstract excerpt
Deep insights into chloroplast biogenesis have been obtained by mutant analysis; however, in C4 plants a relevant mutant collection has only been developed and exploited for maize. Here, we report the initial characterization of an ethyl methyl sulfonate-induced mutant population for the C4 model Setaria viridis. Approximately 1000 M2 families were screened for the segregation of pale-green seedlings in the M3...
