| Abstract | Fleming, H. P. (University of Illinois, Urbana), and Z. John Ordal. Responses of Bacillus subtilis spores to ionic environments during sporulation and germination. J. Bacteriol. 88:1529–1537. 1964.—The ionic environments of germination and sporulation menstrua had a prominent influence on characteristics of Bacillus subtilis spores. There was a synergistic effect for l-alanine and inorganic ions on spore germination. The maximal rate of germination in solutions of l-alanine was dependent on ionic concentration and species. Germination was negligible in l-alanine at low ionic strength but increased as the ionic strength was increased up to about 10−1 m with a variety of salts. Phosphate was the most active ion tested, and divalent cations were the least active in supporting germination in l-alanine. Germination progressed slowly at 45 C in sodium chloride or sodium phosphate alone but not in CaCl2 alone. Germination rates in l-alanine were retarded at high ionic strengths (μ in the range of 0.1 to 1.0). Inhibitory effects of high concentrations of certain divalent cations on germination were related to the binding abilities of these metals. High concentrations of NaCl (10−1 to 1.0 m) in the sporulation medium resulted in lowered heat resistance and germination rate of the resulting spores. The addition of calcium (5 × 10−2 m CaCl2) to the sporulation medium relieved the repression of NaCl on germination and caused the spores to have a greater heat resistance. Calcium and dipicolinic acid (DPA) contents of the spores were unaffected by NaCl in the sporulation medium. The calcium, but not the DPA, content of spores increased as a result of supplementing the sporulation medium with calcium. Possible roles of ions in the germination of spores are discussed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
