The resequencing data and a strong trend in growth rate data pointed towards temperature-dependent adaption, with more parallel SNP changes at 30°C; however, these data were not supported by measures of competitive fitness.

Constraints in temperature adaptation reinforce differences in thermal niche between mesophilic and psychrotolerant <i>Bacillus cereus</i> group species.

thuringiensis lineages were tested, those adapted to 30°C (but not those adapted at 15°C) showed a trend in the direction of higher growth rate than their ancestor, but the difference was not significant ( F 1,5 = 6.09, p = 0.057) ( figure 3 B ).
