I inoculated nutrient agar with bacillus subtilis and it made a dark green colour on agar plates.
Therefore, these bacteria form yellow colonies on XLD agar, but Salmonella spp. can decarboxylate lysin, which increases the pH and the colonies remain red. Furthermore, Salmonella spp. produce hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) from thiosulfate, which results in a black precipitate with ferric salts.
