Summary
A restriction map of the cyanelle DNA from a different isolate of Cyanophora paradoxa (Kies-strain) was established. The positions of 18 protein genes and the rRNA genes have been located and compared to the positions of these genes from the first isolate of C. paradoxa (Pringsheim-strain). The gene arrangement is absolutely conserved in both cyanelle DNAs. The differences in size (ca. 9 kb) and the unrelatedness in the restriction patterns could be explained by numerous small insertions into intergenic regions of the cyanelle chromosomes.
