Description:

Description: Colored micrograph of Bacillus odysseyi spores taken by a field-emission environmental SEM and magnified by 107. Spherical figures (about 2 µm diameter) are intact spores with exosporia. In center of image, spores (rod-shaped) were exposed to 0.5 mrad gamma radiation for 60 min, thus the exosporium (ribbon-shaped) separated. Source: http://www.kennislink.nl/web/show?id=134421.
