Do chloroplasts and mitochondria have nuclei?

The mitochondrial and the plastid origin was a subject of curiosity for many researchers till the late 1950's.They were self sustaining organelles inside the eukaryotic cells and are called semi autonomous organelles due to the fact that they have DNA necessary for important structural and functional protein synthesis. read more

No, chloroplasts and mitochondria do not have nuclei. Their DNA is organized just like every other prokaryote, circular and free-floating in the cytoplasm. They also reproduce through binary fission, thus supporting endosymbiotic theory. read more
