Microbiology Spectrum, 2015 ABSTRACT Despite being resistant to a variety of environmental insults, the bacterial endospore can sense the presence of small molecules and respond by germinating, losing the specialized structures of the dormant spore, and resuming active metabolism, before outgrowing into vegetative cells.

A Laboratory Infection of Alfalfa Weevil, \u3ci\u3eHypera Postica\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), Larvae With the Fungal Pathogen \u3ci\u3eZoophthora Phytonomi\u3c/i\u3e (Zygomycetes: Entomophthoraceae) [PDF]
, 2017 Larvae of the alfalfa weevil, Hypera postica, were infected by an in vitro colony of Zoophthora phytonomi. Two spore types (infective conidia, and resting spores) were produced from infection trials.

Assessing long-distance atmospheric transport of soilborne plant pathogens
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

Bacillus subtilis Spore Resistance to Simulated Mars Surface Conditions
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 In a Mars exploration scenario, knowing if and how highly resistant Bacillus subtilis spores would survive on the Martian surface is crucial to design planetary protection measures and avoid false positives in life-detection experiments.

Clostridium difficile Spore-Macrophage Interactions: Spore Survival
PLoS ONE, 2012 Clostridium difficile is the main cause of nosocomial infections including antibiotic associated diarrhea, pseudomembranous colitis and toxic megacolon. During the course of Clostridium difficile infections (CDI), C. difficile undergoes sporulation and releases spores to the colonic environment.

Conservation of the “Outside-in” Germination Pathway in Paraclostridium bifermentans
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Clostridium difficile spore germination is initiated in response to certain bile acids and amino acids (e.g., glycine). Though the amino acid-recognizing germinant receptor is unknown, the bile acid germinant receptor is the germination-specific ...
