| Abstract: | A cDNA was isolated by chance from tomato which had a high similarityto a cDNA clone from potato known to code for the 33 kDa proteinof the oxygen-evolving complex [van Spanje et al. (1991) PlantMol. Biol. 17: 157]. The sequence of a previously describedpartial cDNA clone from tomato [Ko et al. (1990) Plant Mol.Biol. 14: 217] which has also a high similarity but is not identicalto the sequence described here indicates that tomato containsat least two genes coding for 33 kDa proteins per haploid genome.This conclusion is supported by Southern blot analysis. Thetissue specific expression of the corresponding genes is described. (Received September 28, 1992; Accepted February 15, 1993) |
