  • Key message
    • The variegated albino phenotype was caused by insertion and excision of nDart1-0 in the 5'-untranslated region of the SWL1 gene predicted to encode an unknown protein with the N-terminal chloroplast transit peptide
    • This study revealed that SWL1 is essential for the beginning of thylakoid membrane organization during chloroplast development
    • In the swl1 mutant, formations of grana and stroma thylakoids and prolamellar bodies were inhibited
