A method for the isolation of asporogenic mutants of Bacillus thuringiensis. 1978

A A Yousten

Asporogenic and oligosporogenic mutants of Bacillus thuringiensis can be isolated by streaking the bacteria onto a solid medium, incubating at 42 degrees C, and picking small, raised areas of growth which appear on the streaks after 48 h.
