Abstract: The genome of the dinoflagellate chloroplast has been analysed, and it is decidedly odd. Chloroplasts are photosynthetic organelles, and in these marine algae their genome is composed of a small family of plasmid-like molecules each carrying a gene for a protein or ribosomal RNA. Tantalizing connections with the relict chloroplasts of the parasitesToxoplasma and Plasmodiumsuggest themselves.
