I mean pleomorphism in microorganisms.
There is a considerable amount of evidence showing
that microrganisms can assume different forms.
That could add to the difficulty in studying them from
a morphological stand point.
Also if you have to kill and fix a microbe in order to see it
that is the end of the story. Some organisms assume different
forms throughout their lives and killing and fixing
destroys the whole dynamic of the cycle.
How do see that particular aspect of the microorganisms and
specially soil microorganisms ? Have you noticed pleomorphism
in any of the organisms you have studied in the soil ?
Can the same organism have more than one name ?

Hi Jose -
Pleomorphism as in colonies of a microbe growing on a plate?
Or pleomorphism in plants? Or of diseases and their symptoms in
different soils, and different climates?
A few too many things are pleomorphic, so could you give me just a bit
more information?
Thanks -
