Popis: Under conditions of stress, e.g., nitrogen deficiency, Eremosphaera viridis De Bary (Chlorophyceae, Chlorococcales) synthesized secondary carotenoids and large amounts of triacylglycerols forming orange-red, cytosolic lipid bodies. Additionally, four polypeptides (28, 26, 25 and 23 kDa) as well as traces of chlorophyll a and b, of violaxanthin, neoxanthin and zeaxanthin, and of membrane lipids could be demonstrated in isolated lipid bodies. No membrane could be shown around the lipid bodies by the use of electron microscopy. The formation of lipid bodies in Eremosphaera is discussed as a bulging of the chloroplast envelope membranes
