Secretion of polymorphic vesicles by Neorickettsia in adult P. elegans. a Two endobacteria (arrows) within one vacuole. Note the nucleoid (asterisk) and the membrane vesicle (arrowhead). b A single endobacterium secreting large membrane vesicles (arrowheads). c Endobacterium secreting a small, more electron-dense vesicle (arrowhead). d Endobacterium in close contact with stacks of elongated vesicles (arrowheads). e Endobacterium in proximity of elongated vesicles and stacks of membranes (arrowheads). Abbreviation: m, mitochondrion. Scale-bars: 200 nm
