Priestia megaterium [1] (Bacillus megaterium prior to 2020) [2] is a rod-like, Gram-positive, mainly aerobic, spore forming bacterium found in widely diverse habitats. [3] [4] It has a cell length up to 100 μm and a diameter of 0.1 μm, which is quite large for bacteria. [5]
Priestia, as of May 2021, contains 10 species with validly published names. [3] This genus was identified as a monophyletic clade and phylogenetically unrelated to other Bacillus species in studies examining the taxonomic relationships within Bacillus. [1]
Bacillus (Latin "stick") is a genus of Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria, a member of the phylum Bacillota, with 266 named species.The term is also used to describe the shape (rod) of other so-shaped bacteria; and the plural Bacilli is the name of the class of bacteria to which this genus belongs.
