One species in this genus can translocate its DNA using the ATPase SpoIIIE (spo-3-e). That species in this genus produces biofilms containing the protein TasA. Bird feathers can be degraded by another species in this genus called licheniformis. The Cry and Cyt toxins produced by this genus's thuringiensis species are commonly used in genetically engineered insect-resistant corn.

One species in this genus can translocate its DNA using the ATPase SpoIIIE (spo-3-e). That species in this genus produces biofilms containing the protein TasA. Bird feathers can be degraded by another species in this genus called licheniformis. The Cry and Cyt toxins produced by this genus's thuringiensis species are commonly used in genetically engineered insect-resistant corn. Another species in this genus secretes a toxin composed of a "protective antigen," a "lethal factor," and an "edema factor." It's not Clostridium, but one bacterium in this genus is a model organism used to study endospore formation. The causative agent of anthrax is a member of, for 10 points, what genus of Gram-positive bacteria which includes the species subtilis, and whose name indicates that they are rod-shaped?
