Fruiting body morphogenesis in submerged cultures of Myxococcus xanthus.

Abstract

Induced by starvation, the development of fruiting bodies by Myxococcus xanthus on glass and plastic surfaces under a layer of liquid was followed microscopically. Calcium ions and a neutral pH were required for development of a Myxococcus strain that grew dispersed in liquid culture. Initially asymmetric aggregates later became round, and sporulation followed aggregation.
