ABSTRACT

Facultatively alkaliphilic Bacillus sp. strain C-125 grew at temperatures of more than 50°C, did not reduce nitrate to nitrite, and did not deaminate phenylalanine. The guanine-plus-cytosine content of the chromosomal DNA of this organism was 42 mol%. These characteristics indicate that strain C-125 is related to Bacillus lentus group 3.
