A continuum of dolipore size was found as opposed to the two size-types previously proposed. A cluster analysis was carried out on the measurements to suggest relationships between the species. Based on this and other published information on dolipores, possible evolutionary trends in the ultrastructure of the dolipore are discussed. %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/micro/10.1099/00221287-109-2-335
