Bacteriocins: Novel Solutions to Age Old Spore-Related Problems? [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 peer-reviewedBacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial peptides produced by bacteria, which have the ability to kill or inhibit other bacteria. Many bacteriocins are produced by food grade lactic acid bacteria (LAB).

Timing of fungal spore release dictates survival during atmospheric transport [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance Fungi move between habitats by dispersing small spores through the atmosphere. We ask what causes some species to release spores at a specific time every day versus irregularly.

Assessing long-distance atmospheric transport of soilborne plant pathogens [PDF]
Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Pathogenic fungi are a leading cause of crop disease and primarily spread through microscopic, durable spores adapted differentially for both persistence and dispersal via soil, animals, water, and/or the atmosphere. Computational Earth system models and

Asexual and sexual replication in sporulating organisms [PDF]
, 2006 This paper develops models describing asexual and sexual replication in sporulating organisms. Replication via sporulation is the replication strategy for all multicellular life, and may even be observed in unicellular life (such as with budding yeast ...

Microbiology Spectrum, 2014 ABSTRACT A variety of bioactive peptides and proteins have been successfully displayed on the surface of recombinant spores of Bacillus subtilis and other sporeformers. In most cases, spore display has been achieved by stably anchoring the foreign molecules to endogenous surface proteins or parts of them ...

Spore Resistance Properties [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2014 ABSTRACT Spores of various Bacillus and Clostridium species are among the most resistant life forms known. Since the spores of some species are causative agents of much food spoilage, food poisoning, and human disease, and the spores of Bacillus anthracis are

The oncolytic activity of Clostridium novyi nontoxic spores in breast cancer [PDF]
BioImpacts, 2022 Introduction: Hypoxia context is highly specific for tumors and represents a unique niche which is not found elsewhere in the body. Clostridium novyi is an obligate anaerobic bacterium. It has a potential to treat tumors.

New Thoughts on an Old Topic: Secrets of Bacterial Spore Resistance Slowly Being Revealed
Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2023 The quest for bacterial survival is exemplified by spores formed by some Firmicutes members. They turn up everywhere one looks, and their ubiquity reflects adaptations to the stresses bacteria face. SUMMARY The quest for bacterial survival is exemplified
