Crawling under the radar: Two novel Paulinella species expand knowledge about the ecology and evolution of a primary plastid‐containing amoeba lineage

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The genus Paulinella represents a rare, independent case of primary endosymbiosis, providing a unique system to study the early stages of organelle evolution. Here, we expand current understanding of primary plastid endosymbiosis through the discovery and characterization of two novel photosynthetic amoebae, Paulinella marae sp. nov.

In vivo import of plastocyanin and a fusion protein into developmentally different plastids of transgenic plants [PDF]

, 1988
Transgenic tomato plants that constitutively express a foreign plastocyanin gene were used to study protein transport in different tissues. Normally expression of endogenous plastocyanin genes in plants is restricted to photosynthetic tissues only ...

The localization of nitrite reductase, glutamate synthase and malate metabolism enzymes in Pisum arvense L. roots

Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
Centrifugation of a homogenate made from Pisum arvense L. roots in a sucrose density gradient enabled the separation of the plastid fraction from mitochondria and microsomes.

Arrangement of plastids in Guanchochroma wildpretii.

, 2015
(A) TEM of two amoebae in one multilayered lorica after binary division. The nucleolus is distinct within the nucleus. Vacuoles, mostly roundish, are present in different sizes. The plastids show no pyrenoids and are not interconnected.

Genome‐scale insights into metabolic streamlining and photosynthetic energy balance in the extremophile green alga Picocystis salinarum (Picocystophyceae, Chlorophyta)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Picocystis salinarum is an early‐diverging chlorophyte and the sole described member of the Picocystophyceae, frequently dominating hypersaline and alkaline lakes despite extreme physicochemical constraints. To elucidate the genomic foundations of its ecological success, we generated a fully annotated, chromosome‐scale nuclear genome assembly ...

Systematics and evolution of Velloziaceae, with special reference to sieve-element plastids and rbcL sequence data

, 2000
Sieve-element plastids and rbcL nucleotide sequences were analysed for Velloziaceae and all families sometimes discussed as close allies (Acanthochlamydaceae, Amaryllidaceae, Bromeliaceae, Cyclanthaceae, Haemodoraceae, Hypoxidaceae, Pandanaceae ...

Plastids with or without galactoglycerolipids.

, 2014
International audienceIn structural, functional, and evolutionary terms, galactoglycerolipids are signature lipids of chloroplasts. Their presence in nongreen plastids has been demonstrated in angiosperms and diatoms.

Photoprotection and genetic autonomy of plastids in photosynthetic sea slugs [PDF]

, 2022
Certain sea slugs “steal” the photosynthetic cellular organelles, the plastids, from their prey algae and incorporate them, still functional, inside their own cells. These animals can then remain photosynthetic for months.
