A Bumpy Pathway to Stationary-Phase Survival in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Bacillus subtilis</named-content>

ABSTRACT Bacillus subtilis cells can mount a number of responses to nutritional deprivation but ultimately either form dormant spores or enter a metabolically quiescent state. In a recent article (mBio 10:e01414-19, https://doi.org/10.1128/mBio.01414-19, 2019), R. Hashuel and S. Ben-Yehuda report on...
