The following points highlight the two main cases of cytoplasmic inheritance. The cases are: 1. Inheritance of Plastids 2. Kappa Particles of Paramoecium. Cytoplasmic Inheritance: Case # 1. Inheritance of Plastids: The cytoplasm of plants bears minute pigments called plastids. Plastids arise from smaller DNA particles of the ovum and multiply by division. During the formation of gamete a plastid [...]
