Abstract
Survival of lyophilized vegetative
Bacillus popilliae
in dry soil and in soil kept in atmospheres with different relative humidities (RH) was determined. Cells survived for at least 1 year when the RH was 22% or lower, but an RH of 33% or higher reduced viability. At 33% RH, no bacteria were recovered after 5 months of storage; at 42% or above, no bacteria were recovered after 1 month of storage.
