Visualization of the bacteria in the host tissue using FISH and TEM (D). The symbiotic organ (bacteriome) localized in the midgut section harboring Ca. Arsenophonus lipopteni targeted with green (Flc) labeled eubacterial probe (a) and red (Cy3) labeled specific probe (b). Detail of the host cells (bacteriocytes) filled with the symbionts (c). The blue signal is DAPI stained DNA. Four cells of Ca. Arsenophonus lipopteni under TEM (d). The white arrow points to bacterial outer membrane and the red bordered arrow shows the cytoplasmatic cell membrane
