TI  - An abnormal growth mutant in maize has a defective mitochondrial cytochrome 
      oxidase gene.
PG  - 107-13
AB  - We describe a new maternally inherited maize mutation, nonchromosomal stripe 5 
      (NCS5), that adversely affects plant growth and yield. Mutant plants are 
      characterized by reduced height, defective yellow striping on leaves, and aborted 
      kernels on ears. NCS5 striped plants carry both normal and partially deleted 
      versions of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit 2 gene and exhibit 
      greatly reduced levels of cox2 transcripts when compared with nonstriped control 
      plants. Other mitochondrial genes and their mRNAs are not affected. Thus, the 
      defective plant phenotype is correlated with a reduction in the number of 
      functional cytochrome oxidase subunit 2 genes. The NCS5 mutant mitochondrial 
      genome appears to have arisen by amplification of a rare homologous recombination 
      product.
