Popis:	The aim of this study was to characterize the Arabidopsis mutant seedling plastid development 2 (spd2) mutant and compare it to spd1 and wild type. It was found that the mature spd2 plant produced less chlorophyll than both wild type and spd1. The few cells in the cotyledons that have chloroplasts are mostly found around the vascular tissue or are placed sporadically around the cotyledon. However, the spd2 seedling produced more anthocyanins than spd1 and wild type. Both spd1 and spd2 are agravitropic when compared to wild type. Polymerase chain reaction was used to map the SPD2 gene, which is located near the classical map position 85 cM chromosome1.
