Abstract

The complete nucleotide sequence of the cyanelle genome ofCyanophora paradoxa Pringsheim strain LB 555 was determined (accession number U30821). The circular molecule is 135,599 base pairs in length. The physical map of this DNA molecule is shown along with identified genes and open reading frames.
