Abstract excerpt
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is a multicopy, maternally inherited, genome. Individuals frequently carry a mixture of genetically distinct mtDNA molecules whose proportions may vary between sexual generations or among tissues from the same individual. Analyses of the genetic composition of mitochondria have previously relied on electron microscopy and have not permitted the genotype of single mitochondria to be...
