Title: Investigation of the transposition of mitochondrial DNA and its relationship to fertility in zea mays. Progress report, May 15, 1981-May 14, 1982

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5301169

Progress is reported in achieving the following objectives: (1) to molecularly define the transposition event in maize mtDNA that is concomitant with the cytoplasmic reversion of S-type cytoplasmically male sterile to fertile plants, and (2) to seek altered expression of mtDNA measured as altered transcription of RNA from transposed mtDNA sequences in maize.
