摘要：

Apicomplexans are parasites of great medical and veterinary importance. They contain a vestigial plastid, the apicoplast, that originated through the secondary endosymbiosis of a photosynthetic unicellular alga. The nature of this alga remains controversial. Here, we revisit the available evidence and critically summarize the "green vs. red" debate. (C) 2003 Elsevier SAS. All rights reserved.
