Pigment and Fatty Acid Heterogeneity in the Sea Slug <i>Elysia crispata</i> Is Not Shaped by Habitat Depth
Long-term retention of functional chloroplasts in animal cells occurs only in sacoglossan sea slugs. Analysis of molecules related to the maintenance of these organelles can provide valuable information on this trait (kleptoplasty). The goal of our research was to characterize the pigment and fatty...
