Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse

In this project, we have cloned the albostrians gene HvCMF7 and validated its function by independent mutant analysis. Genetic characterization of the albostrians paralog HvCMF3, as well as Arabidopsis homolog AtCIL, suggesting all homologs retain a conserved function in chloroplast development, however, involved in diverged pathways as indicated by the distinct localization. Last, genetic mapping and genomic-resequencing revealed ATP-dependent Clp protease subunit C1, ClpC1, is a strong candidate gene for barley variegation mutant luteostrians. Altogether, our results pave the way for molecular characterization of HvCMF7/HvClpC1 towards unveiling the mechanism of leaf variegation and a more comprehensive understanding of chloroplast biogenesis.
