Cell wall modification in tobacco by differential targeting of recombinant endoglucanase from Trichoderma reesei.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Gynodioecious species exist in two sexes - male-sterile females and hermaphrodites. Male sterility in higher plants often results from mitonuclear interaction between the CMS (cytoplasmic male sterility) gene(s) encoded by mitochondrial genome and by nuclear-encoded restorer genes. Mitochondrial and nuclear-...
