Colonization of rice roots by Azoarcus sp. CIB observed by confocal microscopy.
Confocal images of rice roots after seven days colonization with Azoarcus sp. CIB (pSEVA23GFP) cells. (A) Bacteria are observed as single cells or as clusters of cells attached to the inner intercellular space of the exodermis. (B) XYZ projection of bacterial cells distributed on the inner part (In) or the surface (Out) of the rice root.
