Sensory assessment of Cercospora beticola sporulation for phenotyping the partial disease resistance of sugar beet genotypes

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2019
Background Due to its high damaging potential, Cercospora leaf spot (CLS) caused by Cercospora beticola is a continuous threat to sugar beet production worldwide.

The RgaS-RgaR two-component system promotes Clostridioides difficile sporulation through a small RNA and the Agr1 system.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2023
The ability to form a dormant spore is essential for the survival of the anaerobic pathogen, Clostridioides difficile, outside of the mammalian gastrointestinal tract.

Ancestral sporulation initiation [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2011
SummaryMembers of the classes Bacilli and Clostridia are able to form endospores, with clostridia representing the ancestral phylogenetic line. In contrast to Bacillus subtilis, the process of sporulation initiation at the molecular level is less well understood in Clostridium acetobutylicum, the model organism of the clostridia.

A Dual Role for the Bacillus anthracis Master Virulence Regulator AtxA: Control of Sporulation and Anthrax Toxin Production

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Bacillus anthracis is an endemic soil bacterium that exhibits two different lifestyles. In the soil environment, B. anthracis undergoes a cycle of saprophytic growth, sporulation, and germination.

To Sporulate or Not to Sporulate: Developmental Checkpoints Monitoring Bacillus subtilis Sporulation

open access: yesAnnual Review of Microbiology
Developmental processes are carefully regulated programs that are present in multiple kingdoms of life and that generally result in cell differentiation and specialization. This regulation can be mediated in part by checkpoints that monitor the progression of development to ensure that earlier steps occur successfully before later ...

The Sporulation of Clostridium tetani [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1950
SUMMARY: In the sporulation of Clostridium tetani, a rod-like fusion nucleus is formed from the two nuclear units typical of a ‘smooth’ bacillus. The fusion nucleus divides into two smaller rods, one of which degenerates; the other is included in the spore.

Mfd deficiency decreases the abundance of complete transcripts of sporulation genes and alters sporogenesis and the structure of dormant Bacillus subtilis spores

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Sporulation is a survival mechanism employed by Firmicutes, including Bacillus subtilis, when facing stressful conditions of growth (e.g., starvation). In this bacterium, the transcription repair coupling factor, Mfd, has been shown to play pivotal roles

Sporulation in Ashbya gossypii [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2020
Ashbya gossypii is a filamentous ascomycete belonging to the yeast family of Saccharomycetaceae. At the end of its growth phase Ashbya generates abundant amounts of riboflavin and spores that form within sporangia derived from fragmented cellular compartments of hyphae. The length of spores differs within species of the genus.

Translation in Bacillus subtilis is spatially and temporally coordinated during sporulation

open access: yesNature Communications
The transcriptional control of sporulation in Bacillus subtilis is reasonably well understood, but its translational control is underexplored. Here, we use RNA-seq, ribosome profiling and fluorescence microscopy to study the translational dynamics of B ...
