The field of mitochondrial physiology might gain by aiming at a consensus on the abbreviation for 'mitochondrial'.

Mitochondria
Description
Mitochondria (Greek mitos: thread; chondros: granule), the powerhouse of the cells. Mitochondria belong to the bioblasts of Richard Altmann. Abbreviation: mt, as generally used in mtDNA.
Abbreviation: mt
