Summary

The changes in the cellular morphology within the cell of Anacystis nidulans have been studied during the synchronous growth of the alga at two temperature levels and the structural changes are discussed in relation to the physiological state of the alga. There is a greater accumulation of photosynthetic products at 26°C and the individual identity of the lamellae is masked.

Zusammenfassung

Es wurden zellmorphologische Veränderungen bei Anacystis nidulans während der Synchron-Kultur bei 2 Temperaturen untersucht und die Ergebnisse im Hinblick auf den physiologischen Zustand der Algen diskutiert. Bei 26°C kommt es zu einer größeren Akkumulation der Photosyntheseprodukte, wodurch die Individualität der Lamellen mehr oder weniger verdeckt wird.
