Thanks all for your compliments !
@ George : yes, this is a fully manual section. I made several
probes, before i had this one
@ Green Larry : Chloroplasts are already modified proplastides.
These plastides, which contain the colour pigments, are modified proplastides too, they are called chromoplasts
Thanks,
Gerd
