DIATOMS VS PLANTS. “While there is evidence of significant gene transfer from the plastid and mitochondrial genomes to the nucleus in higher plants and dinoflagellates, in the diatoms no proof of such gene transfers from the mitochondria to the nucleus were found. The general properties of diatom mitochondrial genomes are indeed more similar to animal than to plant mitochondrial genomes.”
