Developing chloroplasts in a variegated cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) mutant were examined. This plastom mutation leads to a block in chloroplast development at the primary lamellar stage and no grana development occurs. The synthesis of reductive-pentose-phosphate-cycle enzymes was not impaired in this mutant.
