From: Role of the gerA operon in L-alanine germination of Bacillus licheniformisspores
Phase contrast images of B. licheniformis spores following L-alanine germination. Phase contrast images (100 x) showing B. licheniformis spores after 3 hours germination at 30 °C with 100 mM L-alanine or negative control (MQ) in K-phosphatebuffer pH 7.2. The displayed images are representative of experiments performed in duplicate on two individual spore batches repeated at least twice.
