In their commentary, [Golczyk et al. (2014)][1] state that the level of plastid DNA (ptDNA) remains approximately constant during mature, aging, and senescent stages of leaf development, in apparent contrast with our conclusion of ptDNA decline from previous studies. However, the ptDNA decline that
