Challenges to our current view on chloroplasts

Abstract

Chloroplasts are the co-evolution product of three different genetic compartments. This review compiles reports about bacteria and various photosynthetically active eukaryotes that challenge our current view on the structure of chloroplasts. It highlights their structurally dynamic nature and their differences in various groups of the Archaeplastida. Based on these reports, it argues in favor of an evolutionary view on bacterial as well as on plastid cell biology.
