The nucleotide sequence of a spacer region between 16S and 23S rRNA genes from soybean chloroplasts has been determined. The spacer region is over 3000 bp long and contains two tRNA genes, coding for rRNA(Ile) and tRNA(Ala) which contain intervening sequences of 953 and 811 base pairs respectively.
The plastid 16S-23S intergenic spacer region in Conopholis americana, a totally heterotrophic angiosperm in the family Orobanchaceae, has undergone large deletions, including the entire tRNA(Ile) gene and all but small remnants of the tRNA(Ala) gene. The length of the region is less than 20% of that
