Abstract

It was shown that three distinguished mitochondrial subpopulations can be isolated from maize seedlings, turnip and potato root crops. Mitochondrial subpopulation with the slowest sedimentation rate in the gradient of sucrose or percoll density imports DNA most effectively. We suggest that this subpopulation contains additional cellular factors and/or contact sites with membranes of other organelles that contribute to the formation of membrane channels facilitating transport DNA molecules.
