scilearner Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Hello everyone, Why is bacterial endospore not called a true spore. So true spore must be an off spring right. In endospore formation bacteria replicates itself and mother DNA dies, so what is inside the endospore is an off spring, not the dormant form of orginal bacteria. So why is endospore not a true spore? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharonY Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 (edited) Why do you think that an endospore is not a spore? Maybe you are confusing bacterial spores with eukaryotic spores? Edited October 27, 2011 by CharonY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
