PPR767 controls mitochondrial RNA editing to regulate growth and drought tolerance in rice
Plant Science Research WeeklyMitochondria are vital energy-producing organelles that depend on precise RNA processing for function. In this study, Peng et al. identify PPR767, a mitochondria-localized E-type pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) protein in rice, as a key regulator of plant architecture and drought tolerance. Loss-of-function…
