Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Dinoflagellate Nusuttodnium aeruginosum possesses kleptoplast stolen from cryptomonad. In this study, differences in the morphology and metabolism of the host and endosymbiont were compared between different cryptomonad prey as a source of kleptoplast. Transcriptomic change of cryptomonad HrL01 endosymbiont resembled to changes observed under nitrogen-depleted condition, while such transcriptomic change was not detected in cryptomonad Dc01 endosymbiont. Therefore, this study suggested that the host might select its endosymbiont to which the host supplies nutrients.
