| Research Abstract |
The Bacilli is a sporulating bacterium, and it is thought that it is a cell in the state that is the spore in the hospital that causes nosocomial infection. It became possible to classify the species and strains of the B.cereus group according to random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-PCR method. B.thuringensis, B.mycoides, B.pseudomycoides, and B.weihenstephaensis that belonged to the B.cereus group to which it were not reported that there were a pathogenicity. It revealed that the genomes of B.thuringensis, B.mycoides, B.pseudomycoides, and B.weihenstephaensis possess some genes that involved in the p athogencity.
