Sporulation was repressed in the parent strain by various carbon sources whereas glucose-resistant mutants were resistant to them but not to glycerol 2-phosphate. Both mycobacillin and dipicolinic acid synthesis were repressed in the parent by some of the compounds tested, viz. glucose, pyruvate and glycerol 2-phosphate. However, these syntheses in the glucose-resistant mutants were not repressed by glucose and pyruvate but were repressed by glycerol 2-phosphate. The possible interrelationship between sporulation, dipicolinic acid and mycobacillin synthesis is discussed in light of these findings.
在亲本菌株中，各种碳源可抑制芽孢形成，而葡萄糖抗性突变体对这些碳源具有抗性，但对2-磷酸甘油不具抗性。在亲本中，所测试的某些化合物，即葡萄糖、丙酮酸和2-磷酸甘油，可抑制分枝杆菌素和吡啶二羧酸的合成。然而，在葡萄糖抗性突变体中，这些合成不受葡萄糖和丙酮酸的抑制，但受2-磷酸甘油的抑制。根据这些发现，讨论了芽孢形成、吡啶二羧酸和分枝杆菌素合成之间可能的相互关系。
