Abstract excerpt
The expression of a 25 kDa protein, encoded by the fused mitochondrial pcf gene, is associated with cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) in petunia. To investigate the role of the 25 kDa protein in CMS we have transformed petunia and tobacco plants with constructs expressing a portion of the urfS sequence of the pcf cDNA which encodes the 25 kDa protein. The urfS sequence was fused with two different mitochondrial...
