类核体
提示：此条目的主题不是拟核。类核体（英语：nucleomorph）又称核形体，是在隐藻[1] 和绿蛛网藻（属有孔虫界）[2]叶绿体内的结构，位于其内外膜结构（periplastidial compartment）之间，为次级内共生中内共生体细胞核的残迹。这两类生物的叶绿体皆有四层膜，是由一个真核生物吞噬原核生物形成叶绿体后，再被另一个真核生物吞噬而来[3][4]。类核体中也具有DNA（类核体基因组），但均已大幅退化缩减，例如蓝隐藻的类核体基因组已在2001年被测序，长度仅有551kb，只保留了513个基因[5]；Bigelowiella natans（一种绿蛛网藻）的类核体基因组则在2006年被测序，仅长373kb，包含331个基因。序列分析显示隐藻的类核体来自红藻，绿蛛网藻的类核体则来自绿藻[2]。
相关结构
某些双鞭毛虫（Durinskia baltica与Kryptoperidinium foliaceum，合称dinotoms）的叶绿体来自硅藻，为三级内共生的产物，且其中尚存细胞核与线粒体，因此其细胞中同时含有来源不同的两种线粒体[6]。
