Mercer Joint Plant Physiology Unit, Botany Building, School of Biological Sciences University of Sydney Australia Division of Food Preservation C.S.I.R.O. Sydney Summary A vesicular intracytoplasmic membrane system is demonstrated in bacteroids from the leghaemoglobin filled zone of effective Trifolium subterraneum nodules after KMnO 4 and OsO 4 fixation. The system appears to be present in all mature bacteroids from this zone, and is derived from tubular invaginations of the plasma membrane of the bacteriod. A granular substance similar to the bacteroid cytoplasm is found in the vesicles which are bounded by a tripartite membrane approximately 80 Å wide, while the interspace between the vesicles is filled with a material of similar appearance to that in the interspace between bacteroid plasma membrane and cell wall. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Archives of Microbiology Springer Journals
