Bacillus licheniformis is an interesting type of bacteria because it affects humans in many different ways. B. licheniformis is Gram-positive and rod-shaped. It is a motile bacterium, a facultative anaerobe (unlike other bacilli that are typically aerobic), and closely related to Bacillus subtilis.B. licheniformis produces endospores, and is usually found in the soil as spores.It is an apathogenic microorganism that is usually associated with plants and plant materials.t is a motile bacterium, a facultative anaerobe (unlike other bacilli that are typically aerobic), and closely related to Bacillus subtilis.

Bacillus Subtilis. Bacillus subtilis, as with many in the Bacillus genus, is an extremely common bacterium. It is found in soil, water, air, and decomposing plant matter.Bacteria in the Bacillus genus are spore-forming, which means that they create a thick wall which surrounds their DNA and other internal cell structures.acillus subtilis is also used as a fungicide. The bacteria colonize the root system, leaving no room for fungal disease organisms. It is used on agricultural seeds of vegetables, soybeans, cotton, and peanuts and on flower and ornamental seeds.
