Dendrogram of enzymatic characteristics of ten bacterial strains isolated from hot springs, constructed based on UPGMA cluster analysis and using the Jaccard similarity coefficient. Am.: amylase; Prot: protease; Lip: lipase; Gel: gelatinase; Cel: cellulase; Lec: lecithinase; P: phenotype. *Different strain than Bacillus.
