From: Antisense knockdown of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase promotes the neutral lipid accumulation in the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum

Figure 4

Confocal images of P. tricornutum cells stained with Nile red. Cells were photographed under confocal microscope at day 7 in the stationary phase. (A) wild type; (B) Transgenic line PtPDK-1. Left panel: fluorescence of neutral lipids; right panel: DIC (differential interference contrast). Bars = 5 μm. (C) The fluorescence of triplicate Nile red stained microalgal samples was determined by flow cytometry. The relative fluorescence intensity was calculated by subtracting the background counts.
