Description
Pei-Zhuo Liu and seven co-authors catalog a gene family in celery in two thousand twenty-four. The family, called MORF, helps edit RNA inside chloroplasts, the parts of plant cells that make chlorophyll. Chlorophyll content is a main sign of celery quality, so these genes matter for the crop.
The team found eight MORF genes in celery and named them by subfamily. They predicted each gene's traits, motifs, and partners, and compared the family across four related plants. Four genes were predicted to sit in chloroplasts. Leaf stalk data showed four genes were most active, and more so in green celery than in white. The work lays a base for studying how these genes shape chloroplast growth.
