Jason W. Lilly, Jude E. Maul, and David B. Stern. (2002). The Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Organellar Genomes Respond Transcriptionally and Post-Transcriptionally to Abiotic Stimuli. Plant Cell 14, 2681–2706.
The authors of the above article have requested that its publication be retracted from The Plant Cell. This follows a finding of the Boyce Thompson Institute for Plant Research that Dr. Jason Lilly engaged in scientific misconduct, having falsified microarray data found in Figure 4 and the supplementary data set. The authors have further determined that a significant number of clones on the microarray were incorrectly annotated, and they have been unable to reproduce the increased accumulation of certain chloroplast mRNAs in response to sulfur deprivation. The authors wish to emphasize that Dr. Lilly was found to be solely responsible for the scientific misconduct and misleading data associated with this publication. They deeply regret any inconvenience resulting from the publication of his data.
