abstract = {Let    G be a connected standard simple algebraic group of type    C or    D over an algebraically closed field    k of positive characteristic    p  &gt;  0, and        g    :=      L    i    e    (  G  ) be the Lie algebra of    G. Motivated by the variety of        E    (  r  ,      g    ) of    r-dimensional elementary subalgebras of a restricted Lie algebra        g  , in this paper we characterize the irreducible components of        E    (            r      k              p        (      g    )  −  1  ,      g    ) where the    p-rank              r      k              p        (      g    ) is defined to be the maximal dimension of an elementary subalgebra of        g  .}
