A new case of kleptoplasty in animals: Marine flatworms steal functional plastids from diatoms
To date, sea slugs have been considered the only animals known to sequester functional algal plastids into their own cells, via a process called “kleptoplasty.” We report here, however, that endosymbionts in the marine flatworms Baicalellia solaris and Pogaina paranygulgus are isolated plastids stol...
