Nephroselmis viridis morphology by light and confocal microscopy. Scale bars represents 5 μm. a Living cell in bright field coiling the flagella around the body; b Living cell in duplication observed in bright field. c Fixed cell in phase contrast evidencing the flagella length and pyrenoid. d Chloroplast natural fluorescence evidencing the chloroplast sinus (arrow) and pyrenoid. e Chloroplast fluorescence and cell morphology showing disk-like structure (arrow). (F1) longer flagellum, (F2) shorter flagellum, (P) pyrenoid. (S) starch sheath
