Studies on the mechanism of the osmoresistance of spores of Bacillus subtilis.

Journal of applied microbiology - 1 Jan 2003

Tovar-Rojo F, Cabrera-Martinez R-M, Setlow B, Setlow P

Abstract excerpt

AIMS: To determine the reason that spores of Bacillus species, in particular Bacillus subtilis, are able to form colonies with high efficiency on media with very high salt concentrations. METHODS AND RESULTS: Spores of various Bacillus species have a significantly higher plating efficiency on media with high salt concentration (termed osmoresistance) than do log or stationary phase cells. This spore...
