Dept of Microbiology and Genetics, Massey University, Palmerston North, NEW ZEALAND

Sections From White Clover Nodules Examined by Light and Electron Microscopy

Light micrograph section of nodule formed by Rhizobium leguminosarum bv trifolii strain ICMP2163::Tn5. It has a symbiotic zone in which cells are filled with bacteroids.
