The association of mitochondria with the inclusions of five strains of Chlamydia psittaci, two strains of C. trachomatis and one strain of C. pneumoniae was examined by electron microscopy. The results demonstrated that mitochondrial association occurred only with the C. psittaci inclusions, but not with the C. trachomatis and C. pneumoniae inclusions. Multiple inclusions formed by infection with a single strain could fuse with each other during their expansion, but fusion never occurred between the C. trachomatis and C. psittaci inclusions as a result of dual infection with these different species.
通过电子显微镜检查了线粒体与五株鹦鹉热衣原体、两株沙眼衣原体和一株肺炎衣原体包涵体的关联。结果表明，线粒体关联仅发生在鹦鹉热衣原体包涵体中，而不发生在沙眼衣原体和肺炎衣原体包涵体中。由单一菌株感染形成的多个包涵体在其扩张过程中可相互融合，但由于这两种不同物种的双重感染，沙眼衣原体和鹦鹉热衣原体包涵体之间从未发生融合。
