Leucoplasts.

These are the non-pigmented organelles which are colourless. Leucoplasts are usually found in most of the non-photosynthetic parts of the plant like roots. They act as a storage sheds for starches, lipids, and proteins depending on the needs of the plants. They are mostly used for converting amino acids and fatty acids.

Leucoplasts are of three types:

Amyloplasts – Amyloplasts are greatest among all three – Amyloplasts, proteinoplasts and elaioplasts and are easily charged with storing starch.

Proteinoplasts – Proteinoplasts helps in storing the proteins that a plant needs and can be typically found in seeds.

Elaioplasts -Elaioplasts helps in storing fats and oils that are needed by the plant.
