Heteroplasmy as a common state of mitochondrial genetic information in plants and animals.

Current genetics - 1 Sept 2006

Kmiec Beata, Woloszynska Magdalena, Janska Hanna

Abstract excerpt

Plant and animal mitochondrial genomes, although quite distinct in size, structure, expression and evolutionary dynamics both may exhibit the state of heteroplasmy--the presence of more than one type of mitochondrial genome in an organism. This review is focused on heteroplasmy in plants, but we also highlight the most striking similarities and differences between plant and animal heteroplasmy. First we summarize...
