The present invention relates to genes encoding proteins involved in
prokaryotic type or plastid division and/or morphology and the encoded
proteins, and in particular to isolated Ftn2 (ARC6), ARC5, and Fzo-like
genes and polypeptides. The present invention also provides methods for
using Ftn2 (ARC6), ARC5, and Fzo-like genes, and polypeptides.
