Background: Plastid isoforms of solanesyl-diphosphate synthase catalyze the elongation of the prenyl side chain of plastoquinone-9. Results: Corresponding mutants display lower levels of plastoquinone-9 and plastochromanol-8 and display intact levels of vitamin E. Conclusion: Plastochromanol-8 originates from a subfraction of non-photoactive plastoquinol-9 and is not essential for seed longevity. Significance: Viable plastoquinone-9 mutants are invaluable tools for understanding plastid metabolism
