title: Evidence of de novo synthesis of maltose excreted by the endosymbiotic Chlorella from Paramecium bursaria.
abstract: The endosymbiotic Chlorella sp. from Paramecium bursaria excretes maltose both in the light and in the dark. Experiments on photosynthetic (14)CO2 fixation and (14)CO2 pulse-chase experiments show that maltose is synthesized in the light directly from compounds of the Calvin cycle, whereas in the dark it results from starch degradation.
