  • Title: Activation energy for glucose-induced germination of Bacillus megaterium spores.
    Author: Levinson HS, Hyatt MT.
    Journal: J Bacteriol; 1970 Jul; 103(1):269-70. PubMed ID: 4987307.
    Abstract:
    The maximum germination rate of Bacillus megaterium QM B1551 spores in glucose increased, and the lag before its attainment decreased, with increasing germination temperature. The activation energy for germination (mu = approximately 20 kcal/mole), based on rate or on lag, was consistent with an enzymatic mechanism.
