Abstract excerpt
Chloroplasts are highly dynamic organelles whose morphology responds to developmental and environmental cues, yet whether organellar architecture directly influences metabolic capacity remains unclear. Using Arabidopsis arc3 and arc5 mutants harbouring defective division machinery resulting in giant chloroplasts, we investigated how chloroplast morphology is linked to the biosynthesis of jasmonates, such as...
