Abstract — This article reviews the
involvement of the mitochondrial
systems, which maintain the balance of cell energy at different stress
conditions. It is shown the functioning of the alternative oxidase,
free fatty acids, uncoupling proteins, the rotenone-insensitive NAD(P)H
dehydrogenases, the ADP/ATP-antiporter, the permeability transition
pore and ATP-sensitive potassium channel (К+ATP). It is discussed data
about physiological role of these systems in plant cell.
