SYNOPSIS. The ultrastructure of the mitochondrion during transformation of Leishmania donovani from amastigote to promastigote stages was studied by morphometric analysis. There was a slight but significant decrease in relative mitochondrial volume (Vvli) during transformation. This decrease was linear with time for at least 27 hr. No change in relative lipid inclusion volume (Vvli) was observed during transformation. The ratio of inner to outer mitochondrial surface membrane densities (Svmii:Svmio) also remained unchanged. Although the relative number of cristae remains unchanged after transformation, there is an increase in cristae number in the portion of the kinetoplast opposite the flagellum.
