True pili have been peesa only in Gram-negative bacteria so far and in these forms they are involved in mating process. Dumingl process, usually partial transfer of DNA from one cell (donor cell) to another cell (recipient cell) takes rean Formation of pili is generally controlled and is specific for a cell type as conjugation takes place tesi compatible bacterial cells. The fimbriae are small bristle-like fibres sprouting out of the cell. These a to be slender tubes composed of helically arranged protein subunits, which are in diameter his bacteria, they are known to help in attaching the bacteria to rocks in streams and also to thet tissues.
