Sample citations: [1] [2]

A citation code consists of a hyperlinked reference within "ref" begin and end codes.
To repeat the citation for other statements, the reference needs to have a names: "<ref name=aa>"
The repeated citation works like this, with a forward slash.[1]

Section 1

Include some current research, with at least one figure showing data.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a gram-negative species of bacilli shaped bacteria. The genome consists of a rather large, single circular chromosome spanning 5.5-7 Mbp, with an additional variety of plasmids at its disposal (Lee et al., 2006; Klockgether et al., 2011). Both the genome and the plasmids found in this species exist for the benefit of its survival and proliferation in its given environment. With a reputation for being one of the most adaptable and resilient types of bacteria, P. aeruginosa possesses a genome that tends to be larger than most other species of bacteria that have been sequenced so far, and for a good reason: P. aeruginosa is an opportunistic species, and fairs well in a multitude of different environments such as soil, water, plants, animals as well as being one of the top 3 causes of opportunistic human infection (Römling, 1997; Stover et al., 2000). Every point of information REQUIRES CITATION using the citation tool shown above.
