Two Types of Morphologically Distinct Fibers Comprising Gallionella ferruginea Twisted Stalks
Two morphologically distinct extracellular stalk fibers produced by Gallionella ferruginea were compared by electron microscopy and elemental analysis. The thick- and fine-fiber stalks were different in structure on a micrometer scale and in the site on the mother cell to which they were attached, b...
