The mode of mitochondrial formation has been far directly investigated only in Neurospora . By using a choline-requiring mutant of organism, Luck (1963, 1965) has obtained which strongly suggests that mitochondria formed by growth and division of preexisting . In Tetrahymena pyriformis (Parsons and Rustad, 1968), the distribution of -term [^(3)H]thymidine-labeled mitochondrial among mitochondria during growth in medium, as studied by autoradiography, been found to follow a pattern compatible this mode of mitochondrial formation. animal cells, no evidence presently ∄ regarding the mode of mitochondrial formation, from electron micrographs of structures have been interpreted as mitochondrial figures (e.g. Tandler et al., 1969; , 1970).
