Draft Genome Sequence of Bacillus licheniformis VSD4, a Diesel Fuel-Degrading and Plant Growth-Promoting Phyllospheric Bacterium.

ABSTRACT: We report here the 4.19-Mb draft genome sequence of Bacillus licheniformis VSD4, a Gram-positive bacterium of the Bacillaceae family, isolated from leaves of Hedera helix growing at a high-traffic city center in Belgium. Knowledge about its genome will help to evaluate its potential as an inoculant in phylloremediation applications.

Characterization of halo-tolerant plant growth promoting endophytic Bacillus licheniformis MHN 12.

Project description:BackgroundEndophytic bacteria overlay significant role in plant growth promotion, eliminating phyto-pathogens and combating stress-conditions. In the present study, we aimed to screen high salt tolerant bacteria and study their adaptive response to elevated salt concentrations. A total of 46 endophytic bacterial isolates from Vigna radiata were screened for salt tolerance. The high salt tolerant endophytic isolate was characterized for alteration in morphology, growth rate, protein profiling, and compatible solute concentrations.ResultsThe isolate MHN12, based upon biochemical characterization and partial 16S rDNA sequencing identified as B. licheniformis (accession number MG273753) was able to tolerate up to 15% NaCl (Sodium Chloride) (2.6 M) concentration. The isolate possessed 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid deaminase (ACCD) activity along with indole acetic acid (IAA), siderophore, ammonia, organic acid and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) production. Accumulation of proline was apparent up to 7.5% NaCl concentration and declined afterwards. Ultrastructure analysis using TEM (transmission electron microscopy) revealed the morphological alteration from rods to filaments.ConclusionAcclimatization to salt stress and plant growth promoting activities could contribute to utilization of this bacterium as bioinoculant to enhance the crop yield and discourage the application of chemical fertilizers.

Draft genome sequence data of a chromium reducing bacterium, Bacillus licheniformis strain KNP.

Project description:A chromium-reducing bacterium designated as strain KNP was isolated from a sample collected from a tannery effluent of Kanpur, India. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain KNP belonged to the Bacillus genus and showed 100% similarity with Bacillus licheniformis. Furthermore, average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization between strain KNP and its closely related strains confirmed its affiliation with Bacillus licheniformis species. Whole-genome sequencing of Bacillus licheniformis KNP was performed using the Illumina Hiseq platform. Here, we present the draft genome sequence of Bacillus licheniformis KNP. The total size of the draft assembly was 4,280,093?bp, distributed into 21 contigs with an N50 value of 4,186,229. The genome has 45.9% G?+?C content, 4255 coding sequences and 86 putative RNA genes. This Whole Genome Shotgun project has been deposited at DDBJ/ENA/GenBank under the accession JACDXS000000000. The version described in this paper is version JACDXS010000000.
