Complete sequences of two Paenibacillus sp. strains and one Lysinibacillus strain isolated from the environment on STAA medium highlight biotechnological potential

TL;DR

This paper reports the isolation and genomic sequencing of three bacteria with potential biotechnological uses from an environmental sample using a specific medium.

Contribution

The study identifies new Lysinibacillus and Paenibacillus strains with biotechnological potential from environmental isolates.

Findings

Three bacterial strains were isolated using STAA medium from the environment.

Genomic analysis revealed the strains belong to Lysinibacillus and Paenibacillus genera.

The isolates show potential for biotechnological applications.

Abstract

Streptomycin thallous acetate actidione medium is typically used to isolate Brochothrix thermosphacta bacteria from food. Using this medium, three bacterial strains were isolated from the environment. Genomic sequences demonstrated that these bacteria are of the genera Lysinibacillus and Paenibacillus and are of biotechnological interest.
