A new study from the University of Helsinki reveals how plant mitochondria draw molecular oxygen away from chloroplasts, an interaction not previously documented. The discovery sheds new light on how plants regulate oxygen inside their tissues, with implications for understanding plant metabolism and stress acclimation. The research, led by Dr. Alexey Shapiguzov (Ph.D., Docent) from the University's Centre of Excellence in Tree Biology on the Viikki campus, has been published in Plant Physiology.
