There are five major clades of bacteria. List three of them and provide their general characteristics and at least one example for each group.
Most bacteria require a water activity of 0.9 or higher to grow. A prolonged period of being dry usually causes loss of viability. How were there still living bacteria in many of the dried foods such as dried rice, dehydrated coconut flakes, raisins, etc.? Discuss.
Describe the viable but non culturable (VBNC) dormant state and the production of small colony variants (SCVs) type of dormant state. Differentiate these two surviving strategies of bacteria in harsh environments from spore-forming strategic survival of extremophiles.
