Mitochondrial male sterility gene inhibits nuclear chalcone synthase in radish
Figure 1
The mitochondrial orf138 is well known as the causal gene for cytoplasmic male serility in Brassicaceae, but the function has not been clarified. Yang et al. (pp. 483–489) investigate the expression patterns of the nuclear genes in flavonoid biosynthesis, finding that chalcone synthase is strongly inhibited by orf138 in male-sterile anthers.


Species' delimitation and chromosomal evolution of Christensonella
Figure 2
Koehler et al. (pp. 491–507) revise species' limits within the taxonomically complex genus Christensonella in a phylogenetic context and provide new data on chromosome numbers and heterochromatin distribution patterns within this genus. Ten species are recognized and diagnostic morphological characters are presented for each recognized species.
