The Filamentous Forms of Bacillus megaterium

Abstract

SUMMARY: The fine filaments of Bacillus megaterium are shown to arise from large basal cells: they have paired nuclear bodies within walls differing in composition from those of the normal vegetative cells. No evidence was found for any sexual fusion of these filaments.
