The Arabidopsis gene () encodes a transcription factor that positively affects the activity of nuclear genes for chloroplast ribosomal proteins and chloroplast protein import machineries. () is the paralogous gene of . We generated a mutant by site-directed mutagenesis and compared it with and double mutant.

The assembly of these complex genomes using short high-throughput sequence reads is still a challenging task. Underestimation or disregard of repeat complexity in these datasets can easily misguide downstream analysis.
