Under cold conditions, not only the mother plant but also the father plant can pass on its chloroplasts to the offspring. Scientists at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology in ...

Scientists at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology in Potsdam (Germany) analyzed for the first time the inheritance of chloroplasts under a wide range of environmental conditions.

Energy production in nature is the responsibility of chloroplasts and mitochondria and is crucial for fabricating sustainable, synthetic cells in the lab. Mitochondria are not only "the powerhouses of ...

The acquisition of organelles of prokaryotic origin through endosymbiosis is a hallmark in the evolution of Eukaryotes. Chloroplasts and mitochondria are the powerhouses of a plant cell, responsible ...

Malate dehydrogenase isoenzymes catalyzing the oxidation of malate to oxaloacetate are highly active enzymes in mitochondria, in peroxisomes, in chloroplasts, and in the cytosol. Determination of the ...

Microscopic image of mitochondria (green) and chloroplasts (red) in mesophyll cells in a leaf of Arabidopsis thaliana. The interior of the mitochondria (matrix) is marked by a fluorescent protein; in ...
