Male sterility associated with APRT deficiency in Arabidopsis thaliana results from a mutation in the gene APT1.

Molecular & general genetics : MGG - 1 Feb 1998

Gaillard C, Moffatt B A, Blacker M, Laloue M

Abstract excerpt

Four mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana that are deficient in adenine phosphoribosyl transferase (APRT) activity have been isolated by selecting for germination of seeds and growth of the plantlets on a medium containing 2,6-diaminopurine (DAP), a toxic analog of adenine. In all mutants, DAP resistance is due to a recessive nuclear mutation at a locus designated apt. The mutants are male sterile due to pollen...
