Flipping the switch on some of the slowest mutating genomes: Direct measurements of plant mitochondrial and plastid mutation rates in msh1 mutants.
Plant mitochondrial and plastid genomes have exceptionally slow rates of sequence evolution, and recent work has identified an unusual member of the MutS gene family ("plant MSH1") as being instrumental in preventing point mutations in these genomes. However, the effects of disrupting MSH1...
