Genetic Complementation of the msh1 Phenotype with Plastid MSH1-GFP Gene Constructs

Hemicomplementation with Chloroplast-Targeting MSH1 Gene Construct
Construct Pop MM Mm mm/va 2(1:2:1) Ta+/vb T−/v 2(3:1)
RuBP-MSH1-GFP T1 61 97 42/5 0.15
MSH1-GFP T1-104(mm grn) T2 87 60/7 27/23 0.19

Transgenes were introduced to MSH1/msh1 heterozygous plants, with normal (χ2 1:2:1, 3:1) Mendelian segregation (MM, Mm, mm) of the resulting populations. T2 populations display cosegregation for the transgene (T) and complemented phenotype.

a

Number of plants showing evidence of variegation.
