1. ''B. subtilis'' is able to differentiate into cells with different morphology and function, the most severe form being the endospore which is formed under stress conditions. But there are also phenomena like cannibalism which makes ''B. subtilis'' a lot more diverse to work with. We will exploit the production of endospores in our project BEADzillus. The life cycle of ''B. subtilis'' is depicted in figure 1.
