Publication
- A naturally occurring conditional albino mutant in rice caused by defects in the plastid-localized OsABCI8 transporter., 2017, Plant Mol Biol.
Genbank accession number
Key message
- Subcellular localization demonstrated that OsABCI8 is a chloroplast ABC transporter
- Besides defects in chloroplast development and chlorophyll biosynthesis, the mutant phenotype is accompanied by a higher accumulation of iron, suggesting that OsABCI8 is involved in iron transportation and/or homeostasis in rice
- Our results demonstrate that OsABCI8 represents a conserved ABCI protein involved in transition metals transportation and/or homeostasis and suggest an important role of the plastid-localized OsABCI8 for chloroplast development
