Background The plant chloroplast is essential for photosynthesis and other cellular processes, but an understanding of the biological mechanisms of plant chloroplast development are incomplete. Results A new temperature-sensitivewhite stripe leaf 9(wsl9)rice mutant is described. The mutant develops white stripes during early leaf development, but becomes green after the three-leaf stage under field conditions. Thewsl9mutant was albinic when grown at low temperature. Gene mapping of theWSL9locus, together with complementation tests indicated thatWSL9encodes a novel protein with an HNH domain.WSL9was expressed in various tissues. Under low temperature, thewsl9mutation caused defects in splicing ofrpl2, but increased the editing efficiency ofrpoB.Expression levels of plastid genome-encoded genes, which are transcribed by plastid-coded RNA polymerase (PEP), chloroplast development genes and photosynthesis-related genes were altered in thewsl9mutant. Conclusion WSL9encodes an HNH endonuclease domain-containing protein that is essential for early chloroplast development. Our study provides opportunities for further research on regulatory mechanisms of chloroplast development in rice.
