Draft Genome Sequence of Ureolytic Environmental Isolate Bacillus galactosidilyticus PL133.

We report here the 5.19-Mb draft genome sequence of Bacillus galactosidilyticus PL133 isolated from poultry litter. The isolate was an important member of the cultivable aerobic bacteria identified to have ureolytic activity, which is responsible for ammonia generation in poultry litter residue.

Determinants of tolerance to inhibitors in hardwood spent sulfite liquor in genome shuffled Pachysolen tannophilus strains.

Genome shuffling was used to obtain Pachysolen tannophilus mutants with improved tolerance to inhibitors in hardwood spent sulfite liquor (HW SSL). Genome shuffled strains (GHW301, GHW302 and GHW303) grew at higher concentrations of HW SSL (80 % v/v) compared to the HW SSL UV mutant (70 % v/v) and the wild-type (WT) strain (50 % v/v). In defined media containing acetic acid (0.

Genome Sequence of Pseudomonas mandelii PD30.

The genome sequence of Pseudomonas mandelii PD30 is reported in this announcement. The genes for the reduction of nitrate to dinitrogen were identified in the genome assembly and subsequently used in gene expression research.
