Bacillus Strains Most Closely Related to Bacillus nealsonii Are Not Effectively Circumscribed within the Taxonomic Species Definition
Table 1
Presumptive signature sequences (PSS) conserved in 16S rRNA gene at nt positions 71–92a,b (PSS1) and 183–223a (PSS2) in respective V1 and V2 hypervariable regions of Bacillus nealsonii-related strains. aNumbering based on rrnE of Bacillus subtilis subsp subtilis strain (NC_000964.3); bgap at nt position 80 in PSS1 sequence alignments to rrnE is reflected in the numbering.
