In view of the background of information on Bacillus popilliae Dutky (Beard, 1945) and the reported success of this bacterium in reducing populations of Popillia japonica Newm. (White and McCabe, 1950) and in view of the discovery of a similar bacterium attacking Odontria grubs in New Zealand (Dumbleton, 1945), a survey of microparasites and their possible pathogenicity in scarabaeid larvae was undertaken in Australia as a project supported by a Fulbright award.

And Control

Barbituric acid is required at a level of 0.1% for maximum growth of Bacillus popilliae in a synthetic medium. However, only a trace amount of that added (~2%) disappeared from the medium during growth. A general distribution of the 14C from 2-14C-barbituric acid among cell components was observed, but a small amount of the radioactivity from this isotope was consistently associated with both ribonucleic acid (RNA) and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). The 14C found in RNA was uniformly distributed throughout the 4 S, 16 S, and 23 S RNA fractions, and control experiments indicated that the association of 14C from 2-14C-barbituric acid with the nucleic acids may occur by nonspecific absorption. The presence of barbituric acid resulted in very significant stimulation of both nucleic acid and protein synthesis. The mechanism of this stimulation is unresolved.

Almost All

Spores of Bacillus popilliae are enclosed within a large sporangium. In an effort to characterize the spores precisely, a method was developed to free them from their sporangia by sonic vibration. Separation of the free spores from sporangial debris was made by lysozyme treatment, centrifugation, and the Sacks and Alderton aqueous polymer two-phase system. The intact spores are fully refractile; they accept and retain malachite green applied by a modified Wirtz spore-staining technique. The free spores are elongated with rounded ends and measure 1.30–2.25 μ × 0.90–1.40 μ. Outgrowth of intact germinated spores is lowest when heat-activated at 80 °C and highest when heat-activated at 50 °C. Free spores are more heat sensitive than are intact spores, possibly because of damage by the sonic treatment. L-Alanine, adenosine, and glucose separately and in combination do not influence germination of either intact or free spores. Although potassium phosphate somewhat increased germination of intact spores, other salts were ineffective, but almost all salts increased germination of free spores.
