Immunohistological detection of endobacteria in male reproductive tissue of adult P. elegans. a Endobacteria (arrows) in testis. b Many endobacteria in the cirrus sac. c Endobacteria (arrow) in tissue within the muscular cirrus sac. Note the large amount of spermatozoa in the center. d Endobacteria (arrows) in the cytoplasm of an intrauterine egg. Note the numerous spermatozoa (arrowheads) migrating towards the ootype and the weak green autofluorescence of the eggshell. Abbreviations: cs, cirrus-sac; e, egg; sc, spermatocytes; sg1/2, primary and secondary spermatogonia; sp, spermatozoa; sv, seminal vesicle. Scale-bars: 1 μm
