MeSH Heading: Prochlorophytes
Tree Number(s): B03.440.475.100.655
Unique ID: D048928
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D048928
Scope Note: An order of GRAM-NEGATIVE OXYGENIC PHOTOSYNTHETIC BACTERIA containing CHLOROPHYLL, a and b, but lacking PHYCOBILISOMES (light-harvesting antennae). There are three genera: PROCHLORON; PROCHLOROCOCCUS; and PROCHLOROTHRIX. This order was thought to be the missing link between CYANOBACTERIA and plant CHLOROPLASTS, hence the name.
