Abstract

The bacterial spore has become attractive to bioc hemists as an object for the study of cellular differentiation and morphogenesis. Vegetative cells are converted to spores in a relatively synchronous fashion through an intricate 1967. The authors thank Dr. Roy Doi and Dr. W. G.

Research cited in this review which originated in the authors' laboratory was supported in part by the United States Public Health Service and the National Science Foundation.
