Query: NC_014171:1 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_014414:2569494 Parvularcula bermudensis HTCC2503 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Parvularcula bermudensis; Parvularcula; Parvularculaceae; Parvularculales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: An obligately aerobic, NaCl-requiring, chemoheterotrophic Gram-negative bacterium. Parvularcula bermudensis was isolated from seawater collected from a depth of 10 meters at the Bermuda Atlantic Time Series station in the Sargasso Sea. This organism forms a new order within the alpha proteobacteria.
