A hypothesis for the mechanism of microsporidian spore germination is presented which is consistent with the experimental evidence available. Based upon concentrations of the disaccharide, trehalose, in germinated and ungerminated spores, stimulation by anions and cations and the high osmotic pressu

T h s report describes the inhibition of spore germination by N-acetylmuramic acid. At concentrations of 20 mM and higher, the rate of germination of the treated spores was ten-fold lower than that of the control spores. The inhibitor also depressed the activity of two germination-related enzymes; a
