At least 3 bacterial morphotypes, as well as fungal mycelia, thelastomatid nematodes, and ingested material are found in the hindgut. At annual molt, the lumen bacteria virtually disappear; presumably they are replaced from anterior gut regions, ingested exuvium, and ingested soil.
GENOMES OF BACTERIA. So far in the course, we have been considering the genetics of eukaryotic organisms. Bacteria (prokaryotes) are much smaller in size than eukaryotic cells, and they have much smaller genomes. 1.hat common features are found in bacterial genomes that have been sequenced? The genome of E. coli (sequenced in 1997) is about 4 million base pairs with about 3000 genes. These numbers are quite average for bacteria; i.e., most have a genome size of several million base pairs containing a few thousand genes.
