Bacillus sp. strain RP1137 is a bacterium that is able to rapidly and efficiently aggregate biofuel-producing microalgae. By 16S rRNA gene sequencing, it was found to be related to the industrially important Bacillus megaterium. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Bacillus sp. strain RP1137.

Objective To characterize the heterotrophic nitrifying bacteria. Methods The bacteria were isolated from membrane bioreactor for treating synthetic wastewater using the method newly introduced in this study. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to validate the nonexistence of autotrophic ammonia oxidizers and nitrite oxidizers. Batch tests were carried out to investigate the capab...

Bacillus sp. is a Gram-positive bacterium that is commonly found in seawater. In this study, the genome of marine Bacillus sp. strain G3(2015) was sequenced using MiSeq. The fosfomycin resistant gene fosB was identified upon bacterial genome annotation.

background: alginate is a linear polysaccharide consisting of guluronate (polyg) and mannuronate (polym) subunits. methods: in the initial screening of alginate-degrading bacteria from soil, 10 isolates were able to grow on minimal medium containing alginate. the optimization of cell growth and alginate lyase (algl) production was carried out by the addition of 0.8% alginate and 0.2-0.3 m nacl ...

This paper investigates the adaptability of genotypes produced by a modified genome growth algorithm (MGG) in a genetic algorithm. MGG uses constructional selection, a genome growth strategy modeled on the evolution of the biological genome [1]. Experiments did not favor the more costly MGG genotypes. This paper also proposes a new type of mutation operator: meth, which is loosely based on DNA ...
