===Species group placement===
''B. thuringiensis'' is placed in the ''Bacillus cereus'' group which is variously defined as: seven closely related species: ''B.&nbsp;cereus'' ''sensu stricto'' (''[[Bacillus cereus|B.&nbsp;cereus]]''), ''[[Bacillus anthracis|B.&nbsp;anthracis]]'', ''B.&nbsp;thuringiensis'', ''[[Bacillus mycoides|B. mycoides]]'', ''[[Bacillus pseudomycoides|B. pseudomycoides]]'', and ''[[Bacillus cytotoxicus|B.&nbsp;cytotoxicus]]'';<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Guinebretière MH, Auger S, Galleron N, Contzen M, De Sarrau B, De Buyser ML, Lamberet G, Fagerlund A, Granum PE, Lereclus D, De Vos P, Nguyen-The C, Sorokin A | display-authors = 6 | title = Bacillus cytotoxicus sp. nov. is a novel thermotolerant species of the Bacillus cereus Group occasionally associated with food poisoning | journal = International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology | volume = 63 | issue = Pt 1 | pages = 31–40 | date = January 2013 | pmid = 22328607 | doi = 10.1099/ijs.0.030627-0 | s2cid = 2407509 }}</ref> or as six species in a ''Bacillus cereus'' sensu lato: ''[[Bacillus weihenstephanensis|B. weihenstephanensis]]'', ''B. mycoides'', ''B. pseudomycoides'', ''B. cereus'', ''B. thuringiensis'', and ''B. anthracis''. Within this grouping ''B.t.'' is more closely related to ''B.ce.'' It is more distantly related to ''B.w.'', ''B.m.'', ''B.p.'', and ''B.cy.''<ref name="Kolsto-et-al-2009">{{cite journal | vauthors = Kolstø AB, Tourasse NJ, Økstad OA | title = What sets Bacillus anthracis apart from other Bacillus species? | journal = Annual Review of Microbiology | volume = 63 | issue = 1 | pages = 451–476 | year = 2009 | pmid = 19514852 | doi = 10.1146/annurev.micro.091208.073255 | publisher = [[Annual Reviews (publisher)|Annual Reviews]] | author1-link = Anne-Brit Kolstø }}</ref>
