Bacillus anthracis str. 'Ames Ancestor'

Endospore-forming bacteria that causes anthrax and is gold standard for comparative genomics

See Genome Information for Bacillus anthracis
This is the type strain (0581, A2084, genotype 62, Group A3.b) for Bacillus anthracis and contains the two virulence plasmids, pOX1 and pOX2, that encode anthrax toxin and capsule, respectively, making this a virulent strain. This strain is considered the "gold standard" for B. anthracis.
