Abstract

Data are presented which show that a population of covalently closed minicircles, 0.1 to 1.5 μm long, represent, on a DNA length basis, approximately 0.5% of the total chloroplast genome of Acetabularia acetabulum. With a frequency of about 50% minicircles appear to undergo DNA replication following the rolling circle model. The significance of these findings is discussed.
