| Abstract | Pelomyxa palustris Greeff, 1874, is the only representative of pelomyxoid amoebae with rest cysts in its life cycle. The morphology of the P. palustris cysts was studied using light and electron microscopy. The encystation of P. palustris under the climatic conditions of northwestern Russia occurs in August through September. The rest of the cysts have complex, trilaminar walls. The most developed are the two inner layers, i.e., the electron-dense structureless endocyst and the laminated mesocyst; the thickness of each layer can reach 0.6–0.7 μm. The thickness of the superficial electron-dense ectocyst lamina usually does not exceed 0.1–0.2 μm. The encysted cell of P. palustris has a unique structure. About 60% of its cell volume is occupied by a giant central vacuole filled with prokaryotic cytobionts. This vacuole has also been found to contain vacuoles and vesicles of different natures, restricted by vacuole membranes, autophagosomes, and lipid droplets. The amoeba cytoplasm occupies the space between the endocyst inner surface and the central vacuole. It contains no inclusions, prokaryotic cytobionts and most of cell organelles. In the cytoplasm there are 4 large nuclei filled with relatively homogeneous karyoplasm. The nuclear envelope forms numerous long tubular outgrowths, piercing the cytoplasm and underlining the central vacuole membrane. In this state the encysted pelomyxoids survive until the beginning of excystation. The excystation of P. palustris in the studied region occurs in spring, during the second half of April through the beginning of May. The cysts undergo complex morphofunctional changes due to reorganization of the wall and formation of young multinucleate amoebae. Out of the three initial lamina of the wall, only one persists until the moment of encystation. The central vacuole is destroyed and its content penetrates into the cytoplasm. Pelomyxoid nuclei divide twice. Prokaryotic cytobionts are localized in the cytoplasm and in the perinuclear area. Young multinuclear P. palustris individuals exiting cysts do not differ from the adult forms by their organization. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
