Popis: | The fine structure and fatty acid composition of a motile yellow pigmented streptococcus, isolated from gypsy moth (Porthetria dispar) larvae, was compared to that ofStreptococcus faecalis. The yellow streptococcus differed fromS.faecalis in the following manner: (1) absence of19:0 cyclic acid in its fatty acid complement, (2) the presence of a carotenoid, and (3) flagellation. Additionally its fine structure exhibited “cores” (microbial organelles) and mesosomes similar to those previously observed in other members of group D. |
