The bacterium Bacillus subtilis is a widely used study model and industrial workhorse organism that belongs to the group of gram-positive bacteria. In this study, we report the analysis of a newly sequenced complete genome of B. subtilis strain SRCM117797 along with a comparative genomics of a large collection of B.

This study aimed to identify the primary compound responsible for this inhibitory effect. Through a systematic investigation, MT leaf extracts were subjected to solvent-solvent partitioning using ethyl acetate, -hexane, -butanol, and dichloromethane.

In this study, we isolated a total of 72 MRS-grown colonies and evaluated their purine nucleosidase (PNase) activity. Among the isolated bacteria, LAB42 displayed the highest PNase activity.

Background: Despite the applications of Bacillus subtilis group species in various sectors, limited information is available regarding their phages. Here, 61 B. subtilis group species-infecting phages (BSPs) were studied for their taxonomic classification considering the genome-size, genomic diversity, and the host, followed by the identification of orthologs taxonomic signature genes.
