title: [Formation of resting cells in microbial suspensions undergoing autolysis].
abstract: Under experimentally selected conditions favoring spontaneous or induced autolysis of cell suspensions, the asporogenous bacteria Escherichia coli and Methylococcus capsulatus, the bacilli Bacillus cereus (under conditions of suppressed sporulation), and the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae were shown to be capable of forming cystlike resting cells. Their number was influenced by (1) cell density in the suspensions; (2) the presence of Ca2+ ions in nutrient-limited medium; (3) pH of medium; and (4) autolysis rate, dependent on the concentration of oleic acid (a chemical analogue of the autolysis-inducing d2 factor) introduced into the cell suspensions.
