The ultrastructure and development of the colonial sheath of Microcystis marginata

The ultrastructure and development of the colonial sheath of Microcystis marginata

M Kessel et al. Arch Microbiol. .

Abstract

The colonial sheath of Microcystis marginata has a definite structure as seen by light and electron microscopy, consisting of a relatively smooth inner surface and densely packed, long fibrils on the outer surface. The sheath initially forms around the single cell and expands by continual deposition of sheath material to accomodate the synchronously dividing cells of the colony.
