The Sporulation of Free

Abstract

SUMMARY: In the sporulation of , 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. The nucleus remains rod-shaped until the maturation of the spore is almost complete, when it is transformed into a spherical, eccentric spore nucleus.
