TL;DR: No sequence homology was detected between mtDNA of RD1A and the repetitive (A+T)-rich mtDNAs of two other petite mutants, either in DNA· DNA hybridization or in DNA · RNA hybridization using complementary RNA made with RNA polymerase of Escherichia coli.

TL;DR: The results and previous biochemical experiments indicate that isolated mitochondria are capable of carrying out at least the first and last stage of the replication scheme proposed for mtDNA by Robberson D.

TL;DR: It is found that an integrated “master copy” of mtDNA is absent in Tetrahymena pyriformis, which is equivalent to less than 0.04 copy per haploid nuclear genome.
