Microbe Interaction
A virus, pictured at upper center, attacks one species of microbe, called an ARMAN cell. The ARMAN cell is connected to another species of microbe, called a Thermoplasmatal cell, through a remarkable tubular appendage. This image is a slice from a 3D cryo-ET reconstruction of an acid mine drainage biofilm region produced by Dr. Luis R. Comolli, guest editor of Frontiers in Microbiology.
