4019 nucleomorph
Comments A nucleomorph (nm) which is located in a space between the inner (arrowhead) and the outer (double arrowheads) pairs of chloroplast envelope membranes. Nucleomorph envelope has a gap (arrow) that is probably homologous to the nuclear pore of an ordinary nucleus. ch: chloroplast.
