Abstract. Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray dispersive energy microanalysis were used to investigate the formation of carbonate crystals by Deleya halophila. The formation of calcium carbonate crystals (polymorphous aragonite) by D. halophila is a sequential process that commences with a nucleus formed by the aggregation of a few calcified bacterial cells and the subsequent accumulation of more calcified cells and carbonate, which acts to weld the bacteria together. The process leads to… Expand
