- Abstract
We report the complete genome sequence of Bacillus sp. strain ABP14 isolated from lignocellulosic compost and selected by its ability in hydrolyzing carboxymethyl cellulose. This strain does not produce a Cry-like protein but showed an insecticidal activity against larvae of Anticarsia gemmatalis (Lepidoptera). Genome-based taxonomic analysis revealed that the ABP14 chromosome is genetically close to Bacillus thuringiensis serovar finitimus YBT020. ABP14 also carries one plasmid which showed no similarity with those from YBT020. Genome analysis of ABP14 identified unique genes related to cell surface structures, cell wall, metabolic competence, and virulence factors that may contribute for its survival and environmental adaptation, as well as its entomopathogenic activity.
