In actively growing vitellogenic oocytes of Xenopus laevis mitochondria segregate into 2 populations. One stays around the nucleus, actively replicates mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), and builds up most of the stock of the mitochondria in the full-grown oocyte. The other moves toward the vegetal pole and stops replicating mtDNA early in vitellogenesis. Organelles of this population are components of the germ plasm of the cell.
在非洲爪蟾处于活跃生长阶段的卵黄生成卵母细胞中，线粒体分为两类。一类聚集在细胞核周围，积极复制线粒体DNA（mtDNA），并在成熟卵母细胞中积累大部分线粒体库存。另一类则移向植物极，并在卵黄生成早期停止复制mtDNA。这一类细胞器是细胞种质的组成部分。
