Extranuclear Inheritance: Functional Genomics in Chloroplasts

  • Chapter
Progress in Botany

Part of the book series: Progress in Botany ((BOTANY,volume 63))

Abstract

Over the last two decades, our knowledge about essentially all aspects of modern biology has benefited immensely from the huge amount of data generated by rapidly progressing genome projects. As organellar DNAs can easily be purified and are of a relatively small size, they were among the first targets of genome projects. The complete sequences of two chlo-roplast genomes (of the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha and the an-giosperm plant Nicotiana tabacum) were determined as early as in 1986 (Ohyama et al. 1986; Shinozaki et al. 1986). Up to now, more than a dozen chloroplast genome projects have been completed, covering a wide range of phylogenetically diverse taxa.
