  • Title: Spore appendages and taxonomy of Clostridium sordellii.
    Author: Rode LJ, Pope L, Filip C, Smith LD.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1971 Dec; 108(3):1384-9. PubMed ID: 4109864.
    Abstract:
    Twenty-five strains of Clostridium sordellii were divided into two groups on the basis of spore fine structure. Sixteen strains formed spores with smooth tubular appendages, and nine strains formed spores which lacked appendages. The other properties of the 25 strains were relatively constant. Since the minor strain variability which was encountered did not correlate with spore appendage status, fragmentation of this species on the basis of spore appendage status is not advocated.
