Photosynthate accumulation in solar-powered sea slugs - starving slugs survive due to accumulated starch reserves

BACKGROUND: Solar-powered sea slugs are famed for their ability to survive starvation due to incorporated algal chloroplasts. It is well established that algal-derived carbon can be traced in numerous slug-derived compounds, showing that slugs utilize the photosynthates produced by incorporated plas...
