In crosses of the unicellular green alga Chlarnydomonas reinhardtii, the chloroplast genes are normally transmitted exclusively by the maternal parent to zygospore progeny. However, transmission of the paternal chloroplast alleles can be increased markedly by certain pretreatments of the maternal pa

A 1.2 kb DNA sequence, flanked by a potential seven base target-site duplication, was found inserted into a TOC1 transposable element from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. The insertion sequence, named TOC2, is a member of a family of repeated DNA sequences that is present in all the C. reinhardtii strain
Coding sequences from maize, rice, tobacco, and liverwort chloroplasts are aligned and subjected to relative rate tests. Results of rate tests suggest that coding sequences from maize and rice are evolving with homogeneous rates of nucleotide substitution while coding sequences from the grass lineag
Contradictory data have been published concerning the time-sequence of nuclear and chloroplast fusions in the zygote of Chlamydornonas. In the present study, adjacent ultrathin sections of Chlamydomonas reinhardii zygotes of various ages were examined with the electron microscope. These sections cle
