Example sentences for: cereus

How can you use “cereus” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis of over 350 B. cereus, B. thuringiensis , and B. anthracis isolates, identified several distinct isolate groups [ 17 18 ] . Eight of the B. cereus/B.
In a previous study, a similar approach was used to demonstrate that many of the ORFs from pXO1, the toxin-encoding plasmid of B. anthracis , were highly conserved in other isolates from the B. cereus/B.
In the present study, B. cereus and B. thuringiensis isolates that vary in AFLP-based genomic relatedness to B. anthracis were examined for the presence of DNA sequence similar to pXO2, to determine whether portions of this plasmid are conserved in closely related Bacillus isolates, and to determine whether the conservation of pXO2 sequences correlated with genomic relatedness established by AFLP comparisons [ 17 18 ] .
thuringiensis isolates vary greatly in number and size, and many of the phenotypic differences among B. cereus , B. thuringiensis , and B. anthracis isolates are conferred by plasmid encoded genes [ 9 10 11 12 ] . Horizontal plasmid transfer among bacteria, including isolates of the B. cereus/thuringiensis group has been documented [ 12 13 14 15 16 ] .
thuringiensis phylogenetic group [ 6 ] . The members of this group are nearly indistinguishable by 16S rDNA analysis [ 7 8 ] . Plasmids in the B. cereus/B.
