Bacteria like Azotobacter form bacterial cysts where the cytoplasm contracts, the cell wall thickens, and the cell becomes dormant, resistant to chemicals and dryness but not high temperatures.
Ciertas bacterias como Azotobacter forman quistes bacterianos; el citoplasma se contrae, la pared celular se engrosa y la célula se vuelve latente, resistiendo químicos y sequedad pero no altas temperaturas.
