| Abstract | An anaerobic ciliate (Metopus palaeformis) with methanogen endosymbionts was grown in batch culture. The growth of both partners was monitored for four ciliate generations following re-feeding. Methanogens consistently accounted for approximately 1% of total consortium biovolume. Minor variations in ciliate and methanogen biovolume were closely correlated. Methanogens completed one to two generations per ciliate generation. The growth of methanogens in these ciliates is analogous to the growth of microbes in a chemostat, with methanogen growth rate rapidly converging on a rate that is equal to the 'dilution rate' provided by the expanding ciliate cell volume. Methanogen digestion was insignificant in growing ciliates and no other loss processes were recognised. We conclude that the growth rates of ciliates and methanogens are approximately equivalent. The only exception occurs in ciliates showing no net growth, when substrate supply within the ciliate is still sufficient to promote measurable growth of methanogens. The methanogens within each ciliate appear to divide simultaneously and irrespective of their size. This phenomenon is not apparently integrated with events in the host cell cycle. It may give the methanogens some selective advantage in securing their persistence in successive ciliate generations. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
