The rhizosphere is the area around the root of a plant occupied by a unique population of usefulbacteria known as plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). In this study, the isolation andidentification of rhizobacteria from orange (Citrus sinensis) orchards using 16S rRNA gene, as well asbiological and biochemical assays is reported. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene was confirmed bybiological and ...

Two new mariner transposon delivery vector systems, pMarA333 and pMarB333, had been constructed to randomly mutagenize Bacillus thuringiensis in vivo. The results showed that both systems could randomly insert into the genome of B. thuringiensis YBT881 (CCAM 020673). These systems could have potential for further construction of mutant libraries of B. thuringiensis and other Bacillus strains.

PURPOSE Bacillus endophthalmitis is a highly explosive infection of the eye that commonly results in rapid inflammation and vision loss, if not loss of the eye itself, within a few days. Quorum-sensing-controlled toxins are essential to virulence during infection. Another unique characteristic of this disease is the ability of Bacillus to replicate rapidly and migrate to all parts of the eye. T...

Synthetic pesticides have a number of ill effects on soil, water, human health, wildlife and ecological balance. These ill effects have led to the use of microbial insecticides against insect pests of order Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Diptera and Hemiptera. Bacillus thuringiensis is a gram-positive endospore forming bacterium that produces a parasporal crystal protein inclusion during sporulation ...

Aiming to develop a DNA marker specific for Bacillus anthracis and able to discriminate this species from Bacillus cereus, Bacillus thuringiensis, and Bacillus mycoides, we applied the randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fingerprinting technique to a collection of 101 strains of the genus Bacillus, including 61 strains of the B. cereus group. An 838-bp RAPD marker (SG-850) specific for B....
