2 Main Types of Organellar DNA | Cell Biology
The following points highlight the two main types of organellar DNA in cell. The types are: 1. Chloroplast DNA (cp DNA) 2. Mitochondrial DNA (mt DNA). Organellar DNA: Type # 1. Chloroplast DNA (cp DNA): Each chloroplast contains 20-200 copies of a circular double stranded DNA molecule, which may also be linear as found in maize, cp DNA is characterized [...]
