Title: [Endosymbiotic bacteria and their relationship with chlorella in the ciliate Climacostomum virens]. Author: Karadzhian BP, Vishniakov AE. Journal: Tsitologiia; 2002; 44(12):1233-7. PubMed ID: 12683336. Abstract: Structure of cytoplasmic bacterial symbionts of chlorella-free ciliate Climacostomum virens has been investigated. It is shown that ciliates are not able to support simultaneously growth and duplication of two different symbionts--bacteria and chlorella. Cells of C. virens lost bacterial symbionts after an artificial infection with chlorella by microinjection. Competitive relationships between two endopionts are discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
