Query: NC_014171:521996 Bacillus thuringiensis BMB171 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Bacillus thuringiensis; Bacillus; Bacillaceae; Bacillales; Firmicutes; Bacteria

General Information: This organism, also known as BT, is famous for the production of an insecticidal toxin. The bacterium was initially discovered as a pathogen of various insects and was first used as an insecticidal agent in the early part of this century. This organism, like many other Bacilli, is found in the soil, where it leads a saprophytic existence, but becomes an opportunistic pathogen of insects when ingested.

Subject: NC_011146:482440 Geobacter bemidjiensis Bem, complete genome

Lineage: Geobacter bemidjiensis; Geobacter; Geobacteraceae; Desulfuromonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Geobacter bemidjiensis Bem (ATCC BAA-1014, DSM 16622) was isolated from subsurface sediments collected in Bemidji, Minnesota, USA. This organism, like other Geobacter species, is capable of oxidizing organic compounds and coupling that to reduction of metals.
