Figure 2. Putative virulence factors in the 120 spore-forming Bacilli.

Figure 2

The 120 spore-forming strains and the 25 known virulence factors were clustered based on the number of homologs of nematicidal factors, which is shown in Table S6. Enp represents putative extracellular neutral protease, including NPE-4 (ABI93802.1) and Npr219 (ABI93803.1), and chitinase contains Lpchi1 (ABQ57240.1), CrChi1 (ABV57861.1) and Chi46 (AAL78814.1). Crystal proteins, thuringiensin, proteases, chitinases and other proteins are indicated by red, blue, cyan, black and violet, respectively. Strains with UH, H, M and L are indicated with pink, olive drab, orange and mediumslateblue, respectively. Strain names were abbreviated as follows: Bt for B. thuringiensis, Bc for B. cereus, Bw for B. weihenstephanensis, Bto for B. toyonensis, Bmy for B. mycoides, Bam for B. amyloliquefaciens, Bs for B. subtilis, Bli for B. licheniformis, Bat for B. atrophaeus, Bv for B. vallismortis, Bp for B. pumilus, Bf for B. firmus, Bm for B. megaterium, Bar for B. aryabhattai, Bl for B. lehensis, Bst for B. stratosphericus, Be for B. endophyticus, Bmu for B. muralis, Bg for B. galactosidilyticus, Fbp for F. phosphorivorans, Fba for F. arsenicus, Lbs for L. sphaericus, Lbf for L. fusiformis, Pbl for P. larvae, Pba for P. alvei, Pbd for P. dendritiformis, Pbp for P. polymyxa, Bbl for B. laterosporus, Bbb for B. brevis and Bba for B. agri. Each row corresponds to one strain, and each column shows the homologs of one virulence factor. Color of the heat map represents content of homologs.
