Glycation damage to organelles and their DNA increases during maize seedling development
Abstract Shoot development in maize begins when meristematic, non-pigmented cells at leaf base stop dividing and proceeds toward the expanded green cells of the leaf blade. During this transition, promitochondria and proplastids develop into mature organelles and their DNA becomes fragmented. Change...
