Figure 5From: De novo assembly of the carrot mitochondrial genome using next generation sequencing of whole genomic DNA provides first evidence of DNA transfer into an angiosperm plastid genomeDNA insertion in plastid genome. Verification of DNA insertion into the Daucus carota plastid genome. A: Comparison of DcMP regions 1, 2, 3 between Daucus carota plastid and mitochondrial genomes and Petroselinum crispum plastid genome; red shading indicates similarity between mitochondrial and plastid genome, gray shading indicates similarity between plastid genomes; B: PCR amplification with primers specific for mitochondrial DcMP region 3 (left) and plastid DcMP regions 1, 2, 3 (right) in different Apiaceae species; C: Comparison of mitochondrial DcMP region 3 (left) and plastid DcMP regions 1, 2, 3 (right) sequences across several Apiaceae species.Back to article page
