Ammar, El-Desouky; Hogenhout, Saskia A. (2021). CIL:12583, Spiroplasma kunkelii, Dalbulus maidis, fat cell, prokaryotic cell. In Cell Image Library. UC San Diego Library Digital Collections. Dataset. https://doi.org/10.6075/J0N878GB
- Description
-
Confocal laser scanning micrograph of immunofluorescence-labeled corn stunt spiroplasma (CSS, Spiroplasma kunkelii, Class Mollicutes) aggregates (green) in whole mount preparations of its leafhopper vector D. maidis, showing fat tissue. Whole-mount organs were labeled with primary CSS antibodies then with secondary antibodies (Alexa Fluor-488, green), and stained with the nuclear stain propidium iodide (red). CIL:19121, from the same image group, is a labeled version of this image. CSS is a wall-less procaryote that causes corn stunt disease and is biologically transmitted by some leafhopper species, e.g. Dalbulus maidis and D. gelbus (Hemiptera, Cicadellidae). Spiroplasma cells are limited by a unit membrane with no cell wall. They can be quasi-spherical, pleiomorphic or maintain a filamentous/spiral form. CSS multiplies in both plant and insect hosts and is transmitted with salivary secretions during feeding of the vector on new host plants.
