โœฆ Synopsis


Restriction endonuclease patterns of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) were consistently distinguishable between fertile and male-sterile cytoplasms of sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench], whereas no differences in restriction patterns of cpDNA among male-sterile (A1) lines, including six isocytoplasmic strains, were revealed in this study. It is suggested that chloroplast DNA may contribute to the male sterility of A1 lines used currently in hybrid sorghum production.

Mitochondrial DNA from four paired (fertile and male-sterile) lines and six isocytoplasmic strains of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) were fragmented by endonucleases and their electrophoretic patterns were examined. Cytoplasmic male sterile lines differed from their male-fertile counterparts
