Eleven psychrotolerant Bacillus strains with ornithine as diamino acid in position 3 of the peptide side chain of the cell wall and a G+C range of 35.7-38.4 mol% were characterized taxonomically. DNA-DNA hybridization studies confirmed previously physiologically established groups. High DNA-binding values (> 70%) were found within groups I A (consisting of the type strain of Bacillus insolitus DSM 5(T) and...
