Mitochondrial genome structural variants and candidate cytoplasmic male sterility-related gene in sugarcane
In this study, we identified structural variants and developed SSR molecular markers in the mitochondrial genomes of both S. officinarum and S. spontaneum. We also identified a novel mitochondrial chimeric ORF as a key candidate CMS-related gene. These findings offer valuable insights into variety identification, genetic resource development, and cross-breeding strategies in sugarcane.
