| Abstract | In Chlamydomonas reinhardtii P. A. Dangeard, mitochondrial morphology has been observed during asexual cell division cycle, gamete and zygote formation, zygote maturation, and meiotic stages. However, the chronological transition of mitochondrial morphology after the stationary phase of vegetative growth, defined as the poststationary phase, remains unknown. Here, we examined the mitochondrial morphology in cells cultured for 4 months on agar plates to study mitochondrial dynamics in the poststationary phase. Fluorescence microscopy showed that the intricate thread-like structure of mitochondria gradually changed into a granular structure via fragmentation after the stationary phase in cultures of about 1 week of age. The number of mitochondrial nucleoids decreased from about 30 per cell at 1 week to about five per cell after 4 months of culture. The mitochondrial oxygen consumption decreased exponentially, but the mitochondria retained their membrane potential. The total quantity of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of cells at 4 months decreased to 20% of that at 1 week. However, the mitochondrial genomic DNA length was unchanged, as intermediate lengths were not detected. In cells in which the total mtDNA amount was reduced artificially to 16% after treatment with 5-fluoro-2-deoxyuridine (FdUrd) for 1 week, the mitochondria remained as thread-like structures. The oxygen consumption rate of these cells corresponded to that of untreated cells at 1 week of culture. This suggests that a decrease in mtDNA does not directly induce the fragmentation of mitochondria. The results suggest that during the late poststationary phase, mitochondria converge to a minimum unit of a granular structure with a mitochondrial nucleoid. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
