1314–1319.—In nodules of
Vigna sinensis, Acacia longifolia
, and
Viminaria juncea
, membrane envelopes enclose groups of bacteroids. The bacteroids often contain inclusion granules and electron-dense bodies, expand little during development, and retain their rod form with a compact, central nucleoid area. The membrane envelope may persist around bacteroids after host cytoplasm breakdown. In nodules of
Lupinus angustifolius
, the membrane envelopes enclose only one or two bacteroids, which expand noticeably during development and change from their initial rod structure.
