Cytochemical studies of the outer membranes and chromatinic material in the inherited, supposedly symbiotic mycetomal micro-organisms of Sitophilus granarius have revealed the presence of considerable amounts of DNA occurring as either consolidated dots or a spongy network. There is also evidence that, at times, the organisms are surrounded by cell walls.
