Electron microscopy studies on the a-bacteroids in the fat bodies of the lantern bug Pyrops candelaria Linn. (Homoptera: Fulgoridae).

Abstract:

:The ultrastructure of alpha-bacteroids in relation to the fat-body cells of the lantern bug Pyrops candelaria was described. The fat-body-cell cytoplasm contained numerous mitochondria, rough endoplasmic reticula, vacuoles, and storage granules. Its nucleus had scattered chromatin materials. The alpha-bacteroid was enveloped by three membrane layers, namely, the plasma membrane, the cell wall, and the membrane envelope. Its cytoplasm contained amorphous dense bodies. The bacteroid reproduced by binary fission. Tracheoles were also found among fat-body cells.
