{wiki=Bacillus_submarinus}
Bacillus submarinus is a species of bacteria that belongs to the genus Bacillus. This genus is known for including a wide range of gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria that are often characterized by their ability to form endospores, which allow them to survive in harsh conditions. Bacillus submarinus was isolated from deep-sea sediment, indicating that it thrives in extreme marine environments, typically characterized by high pressure, low temperatures, and nutrient scarcity.
