Summary

Algal chloroplast nucleoids were compared by epifluorescent microscopy.Cyanidium caldarium strain RK-1 or 001 has a rod-shaped chloroplast nucleoid whileCyanidium caldarium (Chroococcidiopsis sp.) strain M-8 or 002 has a circular chloroplast nucleoid along the periphery of a multilobed chloroplast.
