Genes functioned in kleptoplastids of Dinophysis are derived from haptophytes rather than from cryptophytes
Abstract Toxic dinoflagellates belonging to the genus Dinophysis acquire plastids indirectly from cryptophytes through the consumption of the ciliate Mesodinium rubrum. Dinophysis acuminata harbours three genes encoding plastid-related proteins, which are thought to have originated from fucoxanthin...
