Microbiology Spectrum, 2015 ABSTRACT Members of the family Bacillaceae are among the most robust bacteria on Earth, which is mainly due to their ability to form resistant endospores. This trait is believed to be the key factor determining the ecology of these bacteria. However, they also perform fundamental roles in soil ecology (i.e.

Tomato Genotype Modulates Selection and Responses to Root Microbiota
Phytobiomes Journal, 2020 Using microbial inoculants to enhance plant health is promising for crop improvement. However, for success, knowledge of how different cultivars within a crop species select and respond to the root microbiome is critical.

The Prevalence and Control of Bacillus and Related Spore-Forming Bacteria in the Dairy Industry [PDF]
, 2015 peer-reviewedMilk produced in udder cells is sterile but due to its high nutrient content, it can be a good growth substrate for contaminating bacteria. The quality of milk is monitored via somatic cell counts and total bacterial counts, with prescribed ...

Heterologous Microcompartment Assembly in Bacillaceae: Establishing the Components Necessary for Scaffold Formation [PDF]
ACS Synthetic Biology, 2019 Bacterial microcompartments (BMCs) are organelles that host specific biochemical reactions for both anabolic and catabolic functions. Engineered morphologically diverse BMCs bearing heterologous enzymatic pathways have shown enhanced productivity for commodity chemicals, which makes BMCs an important focus for metabolic engineering.
