Figure 5From: Glycerol and neutral lipid production in the oleaginous marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum promoted by overexpression of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenaseNile red-stained diatom cells. Diatom cells in the stationary phase were stained with Nile red and photographed under a confocal microscope. (A) Transgenic cells; (B) Wild-type cells. Left: red fluorescence of oil bodies; middle: differential interference contrast (DIC); right: overlay image. Bars = 5 μm.Back to article page
