Abstract
Corrections to the published sequence of the tobacco chloroplast genendhF are presented, including a 90 bpAlu I restriction enzyme fragment internal to the gene that was apparently missed during the original sequencing effort. A summary of the corrections to the published tobacco chloroplast DNA that have come to light since its original publication is included.
