From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Bacillus subtilis, known also as the hay bacillus or grass bacillus, is a Gram-positive, catalase-positive bacterium, found in soil and the gastrointestinal tract of ruminants and humans.s other members of the genus Bacillus, it can form an endospore, to survive extreme environmental conditions of temperature and desiccation. B. subtilis is a facultative anaerobe and had been considered as an obligate aerobe until 1998.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Bacillus megaterium is a rod-like, Gram-positive, mainly aerobic spore forming bacterium found in widely diverse habitats. With a cell length of up to 4 Âµm and a diameter of 1.5 Âµm, B. megaterium is amongst the biggest known bacteria.The cells often occur in pairs and chains, where the cells are joined together by polysaccharides on the cell walls.In the 1960s, prior to the development of Bacillus subtilis, B. megaterium was the main model organism among Gram-positive bacteria for intensive studies on biochemistry, sporulation and bacteriophages.he cells often occur in pairs and chains, where the cells are joined together by polysaccharides on the cell walls.
