Abstract:
Bacillu s species genomes are rich in plant growth-promoting genetic elements. Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus velezensis are important plant growth promoters; hence, to further improve their abilities, the genetic elements responsible for these traits were characterized and reported. Genetic elements reported include those of auxin, nitrogen fixation, siderophore production, iron acquisition, volatile organic compounds, and antibiotics. Furthermore, the presence of phages and antibiotic-resistant genes in the genomes are reported. Pan-genome analysis was conducted using ten Bacillus species. From the analysis, pan-genome of Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus velezensis are still open. Ultimately, this study brings an insight into the genetic components of the plant growth-promoting abilities of these strains and shows their potential biotechnological applications in agriculture and other relevant sectors.
