The swollen muscle contains many spores (also called spherules), each of which contains hundreds of infectious cells called endospores. ❋ Unknown (2007)
The endospores, however, were able to survive between 4 and 28 hours, even when exposed directly to the UV light. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Raffel and his colleagues think that the infection is transmitted when one of these spores bursts open and releases its endospores onto the mouthparts of a feeding leech. ❋ Unknown (2007)
I'm thinking transpermatic endospores are mutagenic and will survive wherever and whatever level of preconditioned environmental elements are in place and/or will rapidly mutate to the level of survival. ❋ Unknown (2009)
Two of the strains of bacteria tested – Bacillus pumilus and Bacillus Nealsonii – are both commonly used in laboratory tests of extreme environmental factors and their effects on bacteria because of their ability to produce endospores when stressed. ❋ Unknown (2009)
My shape is irregular and I can't make endospores. ❋ Emma Lurie (2007)
I think it's totally unfair of God to make it so that poor Corynebacterium urealyricum's shape is irregular and can't make endospores. ❋ Emma Lurie (2007)
Both the ascospores of the sexual form and the endospores or conidia of the asexual form will cause wilt if the spores are injected into oak trees. ❋ Unknown (N/A)
An arthrospore, however, is not a true spore but merely an ordinary vegetative cell which separates and passes into a condition of rest, and such may occur in forms which form endospores, _e. g. ❋ Various (N/A)
_ _B. subtilis_, as well as in species not known to form endospores. ❋ Various (N/A)
The existence of ciliated micrococci together with the formation of endospores -- structures not known in the Cyanophyceae -- reminds us of the flagellate Protozoa, _e. g. ❋ Various (N/A)
Formerly two kinds of spores were described, _arthrospores_ and _endospores_. ❋ Various (N/A)
Systems have also been brought forward based on the formation of arthrospores and endospores, but as explained above this is eminently unsatisfactory, as arthrospores are not true spores and both kinds of reproductive bodies are found in one and the same form. ❋ Various (N/A)
Resemblances also exist between the endospores and the spore-formations in the Saccharomycetes, and if _Bacillus inflatus_, _B. ventriculus_, &c., really form more than one spore in the cell, these analogies are strengthened. ❋ Various (N/A)
Many of the bacilli form endospores but the cocci do not. ❋ Unknown (1910)
The explanation of this is that the bacteria producing the bitter substances usually possess endospores, and that while the boiling or sterilizing of milk easily kills the lactic acid germs, these forms on account of their greater resisting powers are not destroyed by the heat. ❋ Unknown (1910)
Unlike endospores, the reproducing cells are more susceptible to harm, and can be killed by stomach acid. ❋ Unknown (2011)
Able to survive without moisture, and resistant even to the alcohol in hand sanitizer, C. difficile endospores can end up on various surfaces in a room, find their way onto people's hands, and ultimately end up in someone's mouth, where they revert to a form of the bacteria that can reproduce. ❋ Unknown (2011)
Infected people release C. difficile in their feces, in the form of endospores, which can't reproduce, but are very hardy. ❋ Unknown (2011)
