Discovery of Four Novel ORFs Responsible for Cytoplasmic Male Sterility (CMS) in Cotton (<i>Gossypium </i>H<i>irsutum</i> L.) through Comparative Analysis of the Mitochondrial Genomes of Four Isoplasmic Lines

Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is an important feature for achieving heterosis in the development of hybrid crops. Mitochondria contribute to CMS, especially via mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) rearrangements and chimeric genes. However, the mechanisms of CMS have not been fully elucidated, and the ison...
