This study identifies AtMsh1 as a mismatch-directed nuclease in Arabidopsis that facilitates DNA repair in organelles, reducing mutation rates.

This study edits the chloroplast genome of Arabidopsis thaliana to enhance Rubisco catalytic efficiency, improving photosynthesis and plant growth without reducing Rubisco content.

This study shows that MSH1 promotes DNA double-strand breaks in Arabidopsis mitochondria triggered by uracil/guanine mismatches, supporting its role in maintaining genome integrity.

This paper develops a method to introduce random C-to-T mutations in chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes of Arabidopsis thaliana to enable forward genetics for organelle genome studies.

The paper separates mitochondrial and NUMT DNA in Arabidopsis by CpG methylation levels, showing mitochondrial DNA has minimal methylation.

The paper identifies a mitochondrial gene orf125 linked to male sterility in potato hybrids and traces its evolutionary role in CMS development.

The paper describes a TALE-based C-to-T base editor for precise genome editing in Arabidopsis, enabling simultaneous editing of homologous genes with reduced off-target effects.

The paper determines the mitochondrial genome of Taichung 65 rice using a hybrid sequencing approach and classifies it as typical japonica.
