Abstract

The environment is extremely variable, since temperature, pH and osmolarity change rapidly and alter morphogenetic pathway of bacteria. In addition the supply of nutrients usually undergoes drastic fluctuations. Those conditions cause defects/alteration on sporulation and germination of these spores by creating changes in genetic makeup. The work being discussed here address sporulation and germination of Bacillus spores, isolated from polluted and saline areas (soils, plants). Initially 20 spore forming bacterial strains were isolated All the germination defective spore forming strains belonged to family Bacillacea.
