Non-spore-forming bacteria are those that do not produce spores as a means of survival or reproduction. Unlike spore-forming bacteria, which can enter a dormant state to withstand harsh conditions, non-spore-formers typically rely on other mechanisms for survival, such as metabolic adaptation or forming biofilms. This characteristic influences their resistance to environmental stressors and their overall ecology. Examples of non-spore-forming bacteria include many pathogenic species, such as Staphylococcus and Escherichia coli.
