_BDELLOVIBRIO_ IN FULL TECHNICOLOUR Shown here are 3D segmentations, based on cryo-electron tomograms, highlighting the microbial predator _Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus_ (in blue) either
capturing prey (_Escherichia coli_ minicells, shown in green), or inside prey (_Vibrio cholerae_, shown in yellow) forming the so-called bdelloplast. Red filaments in predator cells
represent retracted flagellar filaments of _B. bacteriovorus_. The bdelloplast has the characteristic ‘bubble-like’ tentative seal. See Kaplan et al. Image: Mohammed Kaplan and William J.
