Phylogenetic tree showing relation between Strain RG-07 and other Bacillus strains. In phylogenetic tree analysis, the strain was in the same cluster with different strains of Bacillus and showed only 99.8% homology to other Bacillus vallismortis sp., so it could be stated that therefore it is different the from reported Bacillus vallismortis. The phylogenetic tree was drawn by MEGA 5 software using Neighbour-joining method and the significance of junctions was established using bootstrap method (1000 replicates).
