Abstract excerpt

A UV irradiation-induced mutant of Bacillus sphaericus 2362 whose sporulation was inhibited neither by natural amino acids nor by L-ethionine was selected. The mutant (A61) grew slowly in rich amino acid medium and contained increased concentrations of heat-resistant spores throughout the growth....
