- An
endospore is a dormant, tough, and non-reproductive
structure produced by some
bacteria in the
phylum Bacillota. The name "
endospore" is suggestive...

Endospore staining is a
technique used in
bacteriology to
identify the
presence of
endospores in a
bacterial sample.
Within bacteria,
endospores are protective...

bacteria are
bacteria that give a
positive result in the Gram
stain test,
which is

Bacilli is a
taxonomic class of
bacteria that

structures called endospores.
Endospores develop within the
cytoplasm of the cell; generally, a

dormant endospore. B.
subtilis can
divide symmetrically to make two
daughter cells (binary fission), or asymmetrically,
producing a

Bacillus can
reduce themselves to oval
endospores and can
remain in this
dormant state for years. The
endospore of one

endospores are ubiquitous.
Endospores can be

sporogenesis can also
refer to
endospore formation in bacteria,
which allows the
