Abstract: | Mitochondria and chloroplasts are structurally associated inthe bundle sheath cells of Portulaca oleracea L., an NAD malicenzyme type C4 plant. These associations occur in some restrictedregions where the mitochondrial cristae extend inwards. Exposureof plants to 1.0 µ111 SO2 for 3 h induced shrinkageof mitochondria of the bundle sheath cells, which further visualizedthe structural association between the organelles.
