| Abstract | 3-> When I have tested FISH method for determining symbiotic bacteria in foraminiferal cells, specific parts of cytoplasm are brightening by fluorescent probe, for instance, mitochondria, nucleus and symbiotic bacteria. Symbiotic or sequestered chlorophyll-a shows fluorescent light in case of shallow water foraminifera, in particular to Ammonia beccarii. rDNA are distributed in these organelles or particles. This means that fluorescent parts are supposed to be sporadic. How do you explain all the cavity areas are brightening? |
