Fig. 1From: Efficient molasses utilization for low-molecular-weight poly-γ-glutamic acid production using a novel Bacillus subtilis strainIdentification and characterization of the newly isolated strain. Phylogenetic relationship of B. subtilis 242 and other Bacillus strains based on neighbor-joining tree analysis of the 16s rDNA sequence (a). The bar (0.005) at the bottom of the tree indicates the substitutions per nucleotide position. Molecular weight of γ-PGA produced by B. subtilis 242 (b)Back to article page
