CDC identified the isolate as #Bacillus #tropicus by LRN algorithm and whole genome sequencing (WGS). Gene comparisons using multilocus sequencing typing indicated sequence type 78 (ST-78) and B. anthracis–associated toxin genes.
Limited data indicate #bacillus #tropicus strains could be present in soil, sediments, dust, or vegetation in southern USA. This MMWR describes the investigation of 9th reported case of welder’s anthrax, which occurred in a previously healthy young welder in Louisiana.
#Anthraxlike illness after infection w/ #Bacillus species other than B anthracis. B #cereus is generally associated w/food poisoning. Some B. cereus group species, including strains of B. #tropicus, can encode a homolog of the B. anthracis pXO1 plasmid containing an anthrax toxin gene
