Electron microscopy of isolated cell walls of Bacillus subtilis var. niger.
Isolated cell walls of Bacillus subtilis have astriated appearance in the electron microscope. The structure persists when teichoic acids are removed. It is inferred that the structure bears on the arrangement of the peptidoglycan chains.
