Cytological evidence of BSD2 functioning in both chloroplast division and dimorphic chloroplast formation in maize leaves

Cytological evidence of BSD2 functioning in both chloroplast division and dimorphic chloroplast formation in maize leaves

Abstract Background Maize bsd2 (bundle sheath defective2) is a classical C4 mutant with defective C4 photosynthesis, accompanied with reduced accumulation of Rubisco (ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase) and aberrant mature chloroplast morphology in the bundle sheath (BS) cells. However, as...
