The nuclear DNA is conventionally used to assess the diversity and relatedness among different species, but variations at the DNA genome level has also been used to study the relationship among different organisms. In most species, mitochondrial and chloroplast genomes are inherited maternally; therefore it is anticipated that organelle DNA remains completely associated. Many research studies were conducted simultaneously on organelle genome. | Association between Chloroplast and Mitochondrial DNA sequences in Chinese Prunus genotypes Prunus persica Prunus domestica and Prunus avium
