Additional file 1: of Whole genome sequencing and identification of Bacillus endophyticus and B. anthracis isolated from anthrax outbreaks in South Africa

Figure S1. (1) Colony morphology of (a) Bacillus endophyticus that is small circular, wet and non-mucoid and (b) B. anthracis appear circular, mucoid on nutrient agar supplemented with sodium bicarbonate at 5% CO2 after incubation at 37 °C. Colony morphology of B. endophyticus and B. anthracis on sheep blood agar incubated at 37 °C. B. anthracis shows the characteristic shiny, rough with ground-glass appearance compared to the white slimy and smooth colonies of B. endophyticus. (TIFF 2652 kb)
