Growth and sporulation were examined for 30 auxotrophs of Bacillus subtilis in a chemically defined medium with suboptimal amounts of nutrients. All strains except for some adenine-requiring mutants could not overtake sporulation stage II when amino acids, vitamins, or bases were limited, whereas they sporulated fairly well without limitation. Abnormal structures, a cell with thickened cell wall and a cell with several refractile bodies, were found in some strains after the vegetative growth stopped.
在营养成分含量次优的化学限定培养基中,对枯草芽孢杆菌的30种营养缺陷型菌株的生长和孢子形成进行了检测。当氨基酸、维生素或碱基受到限制时,除了一些需要腺嘌呤的突变体之外,所有菌株均无法进入孢子形成的第二阶段,而在没有限制的情况下它们能较好地形成孢子。在营养生长停止后,在一些菌株中发现了异常结构,即细胞壁增厚的细胞和含有几个折光体的细胞。
