An ultrastructural survey of the genus Prototheca with special reference to plastids.

M J Nadakavukaren1, D A McCracken1.   

Abstract

An ultrastructural investigation of six different species of Prototheca showed that all of them contained starch grains enclosed in double-membrane-bounded structures recognized as plastids. It is concluded that these unicellular species of Prototheca must be considered as non-photosynthetic algae.
