Abstract
Breaking up is hard to do: the complexity of the dinoflagellate chloroplast genome
Highlights
Organization of the chloroplast genomeDinoflagellate algae are found in aquatic environments the world over
Twelve protein coding genes have been consistently found in peridinin-containing dinoflagellate chloroplasts: atpA, atpB, petB, petD, psaA, psaB, psbA, psbB, psbC, psbD, psbE, and psbI
No other protein coding genes of plastid origin have been conclusively demonstrated in any peridinin-containing dinoflagellate chloroplast
Summary
Organization of the chloroplast genomeDinoflagellate algae are found in aquatic environments the world over. Unlike most other photosynthetic eukaryote species, the peridinin-containing dinoflagellates do not have a conventional chloroplast genome. Twelve protein coding genes have been consistently found in peridinin-containing dinoflagellate chloroplasts: atpA, atpB, petB, petD, psaA, psaB, psbA, psbB, psbC, psbD, psbE, and psbI.
