Background: Among the Bacillus cereus group, B. thuringiensis, is one of the most extensively used biological control agent. The present study reports the complete genome and four novel plasmid analysis of the type strain B. thuringiensis ATCC 10792.
Methods: Complete genome sequencing of Bacillus thuringiensis ATCC 10792, assembled using de-novo (v.3.2.0, assembly name MIRA3), Pac-Bio sequencers and Hierarchical Genome Assembly Process software (version 4.1) and real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is a consistent technique for quantifying gene expression based on specific biomarkers, in addition the efficiency of the primers were analysed based on artificially spiked food samples on lettuce, kimbab and spinach with B. thuringiensis ATCC 10792.
Results: Complete genome annotation was performed, and a total of 6269 proteins with 5427594 bps were identified and four novel plasmid (poh2, poh3, poh4, poh5) a total of 134, 131, 96, 21 proteins with 113294; 92,949; 86488; 11332 bps were identified. Six selective genes (lipoprotein-lipo, methyltransferase-MT, S-layer homology domain protein-BC, flagellar motor protein-motB, transcriptional regulator-XRE, crystal protein-cry2) and associated four novel plasmids were investigated along with the characteristics and expression profiles of two housekeeping genes (chaperonin protein-GroEL and topoisomerase enzyme-gyrB). Although from the assessment of 120 strains, both GroEL and gyrB showed 100% specificity towards detection of both B. thuringiensis in artificially spiked vegetable samples. All the eight genes revealed no specificity towards any of the 9 non- Bacillus strains.
Conclusion: In our study based on the complete genome and plasmid sequence of B. thuringiensis ATCC 10792, among the six discriminating genes, specifically GroEL, gyrB and XRE showed promising results in identifying B. thuringiensis ATCC 10792, and there detection limit was 3.0-9.6 log CFU/g in the food samples respectfully. The key role in control of the predatory biological agent.

Background: Certain Bacillus species play a vital role in polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production. However, most of these isolates did not properly identify to species level when scientifically had been reported.
Results: From NGS analysis, 5719 genes were predicted in the de novo genome assembly.

Petroleum contamination constitutes a frequent incidence in various petroleum depots in Nigeria. In this study, the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) present in soil and water in communities around Petroleum Products Marketing Company (PPMC) Suleja, Nigeria, were evaluated and degraded using indigenous microorganisms. The samples sites were divided into 7 plots from where samples of water and soil were obtained: one within the PPMC depot, five from communities surrounding the depot, and the control 93,000 km from the depot.

Processed cheese is a dairy product with multiple end-use applications, where emulsifying salts play a fundamental role in physicochemical changes during production. Moreover, some of these salts may be a strategy to control spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms, contributing to safety and shelf life extension. This study aimed to evaluate the in vitro inhibitory activity of two emulsifying salts (ESSP = short polyP and BSLP = long polyP) against CFBP 3476 and ATCC 13124, and to compare the in situ effects of two emulsifying salts treatments (T1 = 1.

Microbial remediation is an eco-friendly and promising approach for the restoration of sites contaminated by petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs). The degradation of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs), semi volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of the soil samples collected from a petrochemical site by indigenous microbiome and exogenous microbes (Saccharomyces cerevisiae ATCC 204508/S288c, Candida utilis AS2.281, Rhodotorula benthica CBS9124, Lactobacillus plantarum S1L6, Bacillus thuringiensis GDMCC1.
