Abstract excerpt
Land plant organellar genomes have extremely low rates of point mutation yet also experience high rates of recombination and genome instability. Characterizing the molecular machinery responsible for these patterns is critical for understanding the evolution of these genomes. While much progress has been made toward understanding recombination activity in land plant organellar genomes, the relationship between...
