Abstract
The soil bacterium, Myxococcus xanthus initiates a developmental program when nutrients are limited. This results in the formation of a multicellular fruiting body structure filled with differentiated, environmentally resistant spores. At least four cell-cell signals, cell motility, and aggregation functions are required for the completion of fruiting body formation.
