its own nuclear genome; by far the largest with ~350x109 base pairs (bp) of DNA;
the genome of its mitochondria (48,000 bp);
the genome of the chloroplast in its endosymbiont (121,000 bp);
the genome of the nucleomorph (551,264 bp).

Relative to the nuclear genome, this system has several advantages for a comprehensive sampling across life.

Human genetic material, for example, is made up of two distinct components: the nuclear genome and the mitochondrial genome. The nuclear genome (being diploid) is divided into 46 linear DNA molecules, each contained in a different chromosome.

genome All the DNA in a haploid set of chromosomes (nuclear genome), organelle (mitochondrial genome, chloroplast genome) or virus (viral genome, which in some viruses consists of RNA rather than DNA).

close symbiotic relationship one may "steal" genes from the other. The most notable example of this are mitochondria. In most organisms with mitochondria most of the original mitochondrial genes have moved from the mitochondria to the nuclear genome.

The chloroplast genome consists of about 100 protein coding genes, 30 tRNAs genes and 4 rRNAs genes. Most chloroplast proteins are coded for by the nuclear genome, synthesised in the cytoplasm and transproted into the organelle.
