The synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) from a mitochondrial DNA template. The synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) from a plastid DNA template, usually by a specific plastid RNA polymerase. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of RNA, ribonucleic acid, one of the two main type of nucleic acid, consisting of a long, unbranched macromolecule formed from ribonucleotides joined in 3',5'-phosphodiester linkage. Includes polymerization of ribonucleotide monomers. The synthesis of ribosomal RNA (rRNA), any RNA that forms part of the ribosomal structure, from a DNA template. The synthesis of 5S ribosomal RNA (rRNA), or an equivalent rRNA, from a DNA template. The synthesis of the large ribosomal RNA (rRNA) transcript which encodes several rRNAs, e.g. in mammals 28S, 18S and 5.8S, from a nuclear DNA template. The cellular synthesis of RNA on a template of DNA. The cellular synthesis of either RNA on a template of DNA or DNA on a template of RNA.
