TLDR
In 1883 Schimper wrote in a footnote: „Sollte es sich definitiv bestatigen, dass die Plastiden in den Eizellen nicht neu gebildet werden, so wurde ihre Beziehung zu dem sie enthaltenden Organismus einigermassen an eine Symbiose erinnern“.
Abstract
In 1883 Schimper wrote in a footnote: „Sollte es sich definitiv bestatigen, dass die Plastiden in den Eizellen nicht neu gebildet werden, so wurde ihre Beziehung zu dem sie enthaltenden Organismus einigermassen an eine Symbiose erinnern. Moglicherweise verdanken die grunen Pflanzen wirklich einer Vereinigung eines farblosen Organismus mit einem von Chlorophyll gleichmassig tingierten ihren Ursprung“.

Evolutionary pathways and enigmatic algae : Cyanidium caldarium (Rhodophyta) and related cells

TL;DR: This work presents models for the Eurkaryotic Cellular Origins and Evolutions of Cyanidiophyceae, a model for Symbiogenous Evolution of New Eukaryotic Species that combines Cyanobacterium with Galdieria sulphuraria, and discusses the function of Peroxisomes in the Cyanidiaceae.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biogenetic autonomy of mitochondria.

TL;DR: The Biogenetic Autonomy of Mitochondria as mentioned in this paper was first published in CRC Critical Reviews in Biochemistry: Vol. 1, No. 3, pp. 381-460.

An electron-transport system associated with the outer membrane of liver mitochondria. A biochemical and morphological study.

TL;DR: Experiments with tritiated NADH are described which demonstrate that this "external" pathway of NADH oxidation resembles stereochemically the NADH-cytochrome c reductase system of liver microsomes, and differs from the respiratory chain-linked NADH dehydrogenase.

On the origin of mitosing cells

TL;DR: During the course of the evolution of mitosis, photosynthetic plastids were symbiotically acquired by some of these protozoans to form the eukaryotic algae and the green plants.

New concepts of kingdoms of organisms

TL;DR: My purpose in this article is to discuss the merits of two classifications which depart from the traditional two kingdoms, the systems of Copeland (1-3) and Whittaker (4, 5).

INTRAMITOCHONDRIAL FIBERS WITH DNA CHARACTERISTICS: I. Fixation and Electron Staining Reactions

TL;DR: The staining characteristics suggest the fibrous material of chick embryo mitochondria to be a nucleic acid-containing structure, and its variable appearance after different fixations parallels that previously reported for the nucleoplasm of bacteria and blue-green algae.
