Paramylon is a carbohydrate similar to starch. The chloroplasts found in Euglena contain chlorophyll which aids in the synthesis of carbohydrates to be...

These changes include: increasing thickness of the cell, increase in paramylon bodies (both in size and number in Phacus curvicauda), and the overall...

through photosynthesis. This group is known to contain the carbohydrate paramylon. Euglenids split from other Euglenozoa more than a billion years ago....

accepted. Euglena chloroplasts contain pyrenoids, used in the synthesis of paramylon, a form of starch energy storage enabling Euglena to survive periods of...

stacked in groups of three. Photosynthetic product is stored in the form of paramylon, which is contained in membrane-bound granules in the cytoplasm of the...

Paramylon is a unique storage polysaccharide found in Euglena gracilis, serving as a reserve carbohydrate for energy storage. Structurally, paramylon...

green alga. They are distinguished from other algae by the presence of paramylon as a storage product and three membranes surrounding each chloroplast...

tapers to a "snout-like" extension. The cell is filled with very small paramylon grains. One specimen was described as containing phagocytosed algae. H...

from other Euglena species by its one axial, stellate chloroplast with a paramylon center in it. But there are still five species sharing these morphological...

length and width measurements of the cells and flagella, the presence of paramylon grains in the cytoplasm, 16 pellicle strips, four rows of microtubules...
