Nuclear and mitochondrial DNA replication during zygote formation and maturation in yeast.
Nuclear and mitochondrial DNA replication were monitered during the development of synchronous yeast zygotes. Purified first zygotic buds were also analyzed. Nuclear DNA replicated discontinuously but coincidently with bud initiation, while mitochondrial DNA replicated throughout the zygotic formation and maturation period. First zygotic buds contained the diploid level of both nuclear and mitochondrial DNA.
