Empty Pericarp24 and Empty Pericarp25 Are Required for the Splicing of Mitochondrial Introns, Complex I Assembly, and Seed Development in Maize

RNA splicing is an essential post-transcriptional regulation in plant mitochondria and chloroplasts. As the mechanism of RNA splicing remains obscure, identification and functional elucidation of new splicing factors are necessary. Through a characterization of two maize mutants, we cloned Empty per...
