Determination of Molecular Weight of Chloroplast DNA of Cucurbita pepo L. using Different Restriction Enzymes

Cucurbit Genetics Cooperative Report 12:84-85 (article 35) 1989 H.T. Lim and C. Boyer Department of Horticulture, Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA 16802 Chloroplasts contain their own complement of DNA as well as protein synthesis apparatus. The chloroplast DNA (CpDNA) exists as covalently closed circular molecular molecules, ranging in size from 120 to 180 kilobase […]
