• Notes:
  • This subspecies was automatically created by the valid publication of Bacillus subtilis subsp. spizizenii Nakamura et al. 1999 according to rule 40d. Publication: Nakamura LK, Roberts MS, Cohan FM. Relationship of Bacillus subtilis clades associated with strains 168 and W23: a proposal for Bacillus subtilis subsp. subtilis subsp. nov. and Bacillus subtilis subsp. spizizenii subsp. nov.

  • The e-mail address of the corresponding author given in the effective publication is not functional any more.
  • Bacillus subtilis subsp. subtilis is the correct name instead if this subspecies is regarded as a separate subspecies (i.e., if its nomenclatural type is not assigned to another subspecies whose name is validly published, legitimate and not rejected and has priority) within a separate species Bacillus subtilis within a separate genus Bacillus.
  • The original authorship, (Ehrenberg 1835) Cohn 1872, was corrected according to the new Rule 40d. Publication: Garrity GM, Labeda DP, Oren A. Judicial Commission of the International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes. XIIth International (IUMS) Congress of Bacteriology and Applied Microbiology.
