The bacterial colonization of the digestive tract of Mytilus edulis was studied, in the laboratory, using juvenile mussels. For these experiments, six bacterial strains belonging to four different taxonomic groups, were selected from the author's bacterial collection. The results were obtained by examination of histological sections of mussels using both light and scanning electron microscopy. All the selected strains were ingested by the mussels, and observed at different levels of the digestive tract as early as 15 minutes after the distribution of the bacterial suspension. Some strains were able to form microcolonies (5 to 10 um in diamater) and this probably made easier the ingestion. The bacterial cells were also agglomerated by the b...
