Lecoplasts are a type of plastid found in plant cells, specifically involved in the synthesis and storage of lipids and fats. They play a crucial role in metabolic processes, contributing to energy storage and the formation of membranes. Lecoplasts are less common than other plastids like chloroplasts and chromoplasts, but they are essential for certain plant functions, particularly in seeds and fruits.
