Adaptation and phenotypic diversification of Bacillus thuringiensis biofilm are accompanied by fuzzy spreader morphotypes

npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2022
Bacillus cereus group (Bacillus cereus sensu lato) has a diverse ecology, including various species that produce biofilms on abiotic and biotic surfaces. While genetic and morphological diversification enables the adaptation of multicellular communities,

Genomic insights into the taxonomic status of the Bacillus cereus group [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2015
Abstract The identification and phylogenetic relationships of bacteria within the Bacillus cereus group are controversial. This study aimed at determining the taxonomic affiliations of these strains using the whole-genome sequence-based Genome BLAST Distance Phylogeny (GBDP)

Comparing nonsynergistic gamma models with interaction models to predict growth of emetic Bacillus cereus when using combinations of pH and individual undissociated acids as growth-limiting factors [PDF]

, 2010
A combination of multiple hurdles to limit microbial growth is frequently applied in foods to achieve an overall level of protection. Quantification of hurdle technology aims at identifying synergistic or multiplicative effects and is still being ...

Emetic toxin-producing strains of Bacillus cereus show distinct characteristics within the Bacillus cereus group [PDF]

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2006
One hundred representative strains of Bacillus cereus were selected from a total collection of 372 B. cereus strains using two typing methods (RAPD and FT-IR) to investigate if emetic toxin-producing hazardous B. cereus strains possess characteristic growth and heat resistance profiles.

Omnidirectional Interaction Networks Modulating Phenotypic Plasticity in the Gut Microbiota Towards Ulcerative Colitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study employs a spouse‐pair cohort design and an idopNetwork model that integrates evolutionary game theory, predator‐prey dynamics, and developmental modularity theory to reconstruct maximally informative microbial interaction networks. This approach reveals how interspecies interactions drive the phenotypic plasticity of the gut microbiota in ...

An investigation into the effects of a simulated human gastro-intestinal tract has on Bacillus cereus and Bacillus weihenstephanensis viability and pathogenicity [PDF]

, 2012
Bacillus cereus is one of the known causes of diarrhoeal food poisoning. In their natural environment of soil surviving as spores facilitates their colonisation of raw food ingredients enabling their access to the food chain.
