摘要
Plastids (the organelles in which photosynthesis occurs) originated when cyanobacteria set up home within other unicellular organisms. Red algae, green algae and glaucophytes all contain plastids, but the question remains as to whether plastids arose just once, in an ancestor of these plants, or several times. New evidence from nuclear genes supports the first possibility.
