FIG.2.

Positions of subgroup-specific differences in the 23S rRNA sequences of B. cereus subgroups. The sequence of B. anthracis Sterne (GenBank accession no. AF176321) has been used as the consensus sequence. Arrows indicate regions containing subgroup-specific differences. Vertical lines indicate nucleotides identical to consensus sequences. Dots note nonsequenced regions. Superscript letters: a, 16S rRNA sequences are available (Table 2); b, whole-genome sequences are available (Table 3); c, 5 of 11 23S rRNA genes contain T(594); d, 4 of 12 23S RNA genes contain the insertion G(1218-129); e, 6 of 12 23S rRNA genes have A(1559); f, 7 of 11 23S rRNA genes in B. cereus ATCC 14579 reveal A(1559); g, 8 of 11 23S rRNA genes contain A(1559).
