Inhaltsangabe

The book summarizes our current knowledge in the molecular biology of plant mitochondria. It covers such topics as:

- RNA editing
- mitochondrial gene organization and expression
- protein synthesis and transport
- cytoplasmic male sterility

Specific emphasis is placed on RNA editing. Different systems known to date in mitochondria and plastids are compared. In addition, their connection with the molecular biology involved with the functional analysis is delineated.

Another major topic is the molecular biology of mitochondrial genomes of cytoplasmic male sterile (cms) plants. The similarities observed in different cms systems not only promote our understanding of those processes which lead to male sterile plants but are also helpful for breeding strategies.

Concise and timely, this book is a unique collaboration of researchers from different fields.
