Kleptoplasty or kleptoplastidy is a process in symbiotic relationships whereby plastids, notably chloroplasts from algae, are sequestered by the host....

Costasiellidae. Despite being animals they indirectly perform photosynthesis, via kleptoplasty. Discovered in 1993 off the coast of the Japanese island Kuroshima, Costasiella...

The capture and sequestering of photosynthetic cells and chloroplasts, kleptoplasty, occurs in many types of modern eukaryotic organisms. The cytoskeleton...

retains the chloroplasts of its prey for its own use, a process known as kleptoplasty ('stealing of plastids'). After phagocytosis of the algal prey, its cell...

chloroplasts from the algae they eat, a very unusual phenomenon known as kleptoplasty, for the "stolen" plastids. This earns them the title of the "solar-powered...

developed the capacity to sequester ingested plastids—a process known as kleptoplasty. A. F. W. Schimper was the first to name, describe, and provide a clear...

capable of kleptoplasty, which is the process of taking chloroplasts from digested algae and using them for photosynthesis. Kleptoplasty is performed...

A chloroplast (/ˈklɔːrəˌplæst, -plɑːst/) is a type of membrane-bound organelle known as a plastid that conducts photosynthesis mostly in plant and algal...

lettuce-like ruffles that line its body. This slug, like other Sacoglossa, uses kleptoplasty, a process in which the slug absorbs chloroplasts from the algae it eats...

microalgae has evolved. Some species in the same order has also evolved kleptoplasty. The earliest known fossils confidently classified as tapeworms have...

some other Sacoglossan species carry out a process called functional kleptoplasty. This is a process in which the digestion of algal plastids consumed...
