Abstract excerpt
Chloroplast development is a complex process that is critical for the growth and development of plants. Pentapeptide repeat (PPR) proteins contain large members but only few of them have been characterized in rice. In this study, we identified a new PLS-type protein, WAL3 (Whole Albino Leaf on Chromosome 3), playing important roles in plant chloroplast development. Knockout of WAL3 gene in Nipponbare variety...
