Bacillus licheniformis BL-09 is a probiotic strain isolated from naturally fermented congee in Inner Mongolia of China. The genome of this strain contains a 4.39 Mb circular chromosome with an average GC content of 45.9%. The analysis of the genome revealed two gene clusters that are related to the peptide biosynthesis. The available genetic information of these peptides makes it possible to construct an improved strain for the industrial production of antimicrobial agents.

Algal-bacterial bioremediation of cyanide-containing wastewater in a continuous stirred photobioreactor.

World J Microbiol Biotechnol

January 2025

The Biotechnology Center, Faculty of Pharmacy, Cairo University, Cairo, 11562, Egypt.

This study reports the isolation and characterization of highly resistant bacterial and microalgal strains from an Egyptian wastewater treatment station to cyanide-containing compounds. The bacterial strain was identified as Bacillus licheniformis by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The isolate removed up to 1 g L potassium cyanide, 3 g L benzonitrile, and 1 g L sodium salicylate when incubated as 10% v/v in MSM at 30 ℃.

State Key Laboratory of Biocatalysis and Enzyme Engineering, Environmental Microbial Technology Center of Hubei Province, College of Life Sciences, Hubei University, Wuhan 430062, China.

Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is a natural polymer whose molecular weight and viscosity are critical for its application in various fields. However, research on super-high-molecular-weight or -viscosity γ-PGA is limited. In this study, the gene in WX-02 was knocked out using homologous recombination, and the batch fermentation performances of the recombinant strain WX-ΔpgdS were compared to those of WX-02.

To investigate the bacterial community structure and physicochemical characteristics of different types of Daqu in the Binzhou region, this study employed traditional pure culture methods, high-throughput sequencing technology, and conventional physicochemical assays for analysis. The research results indicate that Enterococcus faecium and Bacillus licheniformis emerged as the main LAB and Bacillus species in Daqu from Binzhou region, respectively. In addition, high-throughput sequencing revealed significant differences in bacterial community structure between the two types of Daqu (P < 0.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how supplementing sow feed with the probiotic Bacillus licheniformis affects the milk microbiome and piglet health.
  • It found that this supplementation increased beneficial bacteria and decreased harmful ones in sow colostrum, improving microbiome diversity and function.
  • The research suggests that maintaining a healthy milk microbiome through supplementation could enhance nutrient delivery and immunity for better piglet development.

Tomato is an important crop worldwide, but groundnut bud necrosis virus (GBNV) often hampers its growth. This study investigates the antiviral potential of bacterial endophytes, including CNEB54, CNEB4, CNEB26, and BAVE5 against GBNV, as well as their ability to enhance immunity and growth in tomato. All four bacterial isolates demonstrated a significant delay in GBNV symptom development 10 days post-inoculation, with disease incidence ranging from 18% to 36% compared to 84% in control.
