From: Nutrition induced pleomorphism and budding mode of reproduction in Deinococcus radiodurans
SEM images of budding mode of reproduction in D. radiodurans along with schematic illustration. A – Monomer cells of D. radiodurans; B – Bud initiation in monomer cell; C – Bud elongation stage; D – Mature bud stage; E – Constriction formation between mother and daughter cell; F – Bud initiation before separation of cell; G – Separated daughter cells. Panel H shows a schematic model for budding mode of reproduction. Culture condition 1: 100 dilution in TGY; Grown at 30°C for 48 hrs.
