Nye So this is what Bacillus subtilis looks like.

The rods are used for seeing in low light conditions, and there is only one kind of those.

Well, the rod cells in your retina take over in low light conditions.

So we wondered if the same inhibitor could curb B. subtilis's effectiveness.

So somehow you're thinking that they will get... they'll reproduce better, they'll get more fit, be stronger, more excited sub Bacillus subtilis.

In the retina, there are two different types of light detecting cells rods and cones.

I've never, uh, I've never, that I know of, tried Bacillus subtilis, but these these probably taste better.

You only have one kind of rod cell, and so there is one type of signal that can get sent to your brain

We thought that maybe if it's the same gene, you know, the phosphate will help curb the growth in the virulence of the B. subtilis that we have.

A common story, still repeated by Shiva, is that GM corn with Bt toxin kills Monarch butterflies.

The toxin from B. thuringiensis (Bt toxin) has been incorporated directly into plants through the use of genetic engineering.

Bacillus pasteurii, a micro organism that is readily available in wetlands and marshes, and does precisely that.

We are planning to send the QST 713 strain of bacillus subtilis into space to see if it will become more virulent to fungi,

We see the result, the traces, if you like, of the Bacillus pasteurii being harnessed to sculpt the desert into these habitable environments.
