Adenine inhibition of the synthesis of photosynthetic membranes in the chloroplast of Scenedesmus obliquus grown in the dark.
In the presence of adenine, heterotrophically grown Scenedesmus obliquus lost most of its photosynthetic membranes. The rudimentary membranes appeared to be intact both functionally and morphologically.
