( 1995 ) Bacillus oleronius sp.nov., a member of the hindgut flora of the termite Reticulitermes santonensis (Feytaud). PMID : 7553453 DOI : 10.1139/m95-096 Abstract >>
A new rod-shaped endospore-forming bacterium is described, which was isolated from the hindgut of the termite Reticulitermes santonensis (Feytaud). The isolate stains Gram negative and its DNA has a guanine-plus-cytosine content of 35 mol%. Despite the Gram-staining reaction, both biochemical and physiological features place the isolate in the genus Bacillus and indicate a phenotypic resemblance to the Bacillus firmus-lentus group of species. On the basis of comparative 16S rRNA analysis and some phenotypic features the isolate clearly represents a new species for which the name Bacillus oleronius is proposed. The type strain is Bacillus oleronius Rt 10 (DSM 9356).

( 2012 ) Emended descriptions of Bacillus sporothermodurans and Bacillus oleronius with the inclusion of dairy farm isolates of both species. PMID : 21398506 DOI : 10.1099/ijs.0.026740-0 Abstract >>
Bacillus sporothermodurans is an industrially important micro-organism because of its ability to produce endospores which resist ultra-high temperature (UHT) and industrial sterilization processes. It was described by Pettersson et al. (1996) [Pettersson, B., Lembke, F., Hammer, P., Stackebrandt, E. & Priest, F. G. (1996). Int J Syst Bacteriol 46, 759-764] based on seven genetically homogeneous isolates all from UHT milk. Bacillus oleronius, the closest phylogenetic neighbour of B. sporothermodurans, was described by Kuhnigk et al. (1995) [Kuhnigk, T., Borst, E.-M., Breunig, A., K?nig, H., Collins, M. D., Hutson, R. A. & K?mpfer, P. (1995). Can J Microbiol 41, 699-706] based on a single strain, isolated from the hindgut of the termite Reticulitermes santonensis. A polyphasic study of a heterogeneous collection of B. sporothermodurans and B. oleronius strains isolated from various sources and geographical origins led to an emended description of both species. Additional data presented are the results of fatty acid, quinone and/or cell wall (polar lipid) analyses. DNA-DNA hybridization confirmed 3 subgroups of strains obtained after SDS-PAGE analysis of cellular proteins as B. sporothermodurans. One named B. sporothermodurans strain (R-7489) was reclassified as a Bacillus fordii strain. The phenotypic profiles of both species were rather heterogeneous, sometimes different from the original descriptions and did not differ in a large number of characteristics, although B. oleronius generally gave stronger reactions in its positive tests than did B. sporothermodurans; the variable and weak reactions for both organisms with some substrates blurred the distinction between the two. However, differences in polar lipid, SDS-PAGE and menaquinone profiles clearly allow distinction between the two species.

( 2017 ) Draft genome sequence of Bacillus oleronius DSM 9356 isolated from the termite Reticulitermes santonensis. PMID : 28386530 DOI : 10.1016/j.gdata.2017.03.005 PMC : PMC5374852 Abstract >>
Bacillus oleronius strain DSM 9356 isolated from the termite Reticulitermes santonensis was sequenced to gain insights in relation to its closest phylogenetic neighbor Bacillus sporothermodurans. The draft genome of strain DSM 9356 contains 5,083,966 bp with an estimated G + C content of 35%, 4899 protein-coding genes, 116 tRNAs and 18 rRNAs. The RAST annotation assigned these genes into 462 subsystems, with the maximum number of genes associated with amino acids and derivatives metabolism (14.84%), followed by carbohydrates (13.89%) and protein metabolism subsystems (9.10%). The draft genome sequence and annotation has been deposited at NCBI under the accession number MTLA00000000.
