The chromoplasts of yellow perigon leaves of Tulipa derive from the young chloroplasts present in the bud stage. During chromoplast development and thylakoid breakdown many large plastoglobuli (diameter 80-360 nm) are formed. The function of the petal plastoglobuli as stores for the chromoplast lipids such as plastidquinones and carotenoids is discussed.
郁金香黄色花瓣的有色体源自芽期存在的幼嫩叶绿体。在有色体发育和类囊体解体过程中，形成了许多大的质体小球（直径80 - 360纳米）。本文讨论了花瓣质体小球作为有色体脂质（如质体醌和类胡萝卜素）储存库的功能。
