FIG. 1.
Organization of flagellin and neighboring genes. Shown are gene arrangements in B. thuringiensis serovar konkukian strain 97-27 (GenBank accession no. NC_005957) and B. thuringiensis strain Al-Hakam (GenBank accession no. NC_008600) (a), B. cereus strain ATCC 14579 (GenBank accession no. NC_004722) (b), B. thuringiensis serovar alesti strain Bt5 (GenBank accession no. X67138) (c), B. thuringiensis serovars alesti and kurstaki (d), B. thuringiensis serovar sumiyoshiensis (e), B. thuringiensis serovar fukuokaensis (f), B. thuringiensis serovar entomocidus (g), and B. thuringiensis serovar entomocidus biovar subtoxicus (h). Gene names are given. Arrowheads indicate the orientations of the coding regions. The positions and orientations of the primers, slt-F1 and fliC-R6, used in the amplification are given. A scale bar in kilobases is shown below the diagram.
