Bacillus cereus is a gram-positive, spore-forming bacterium possessing an important and historical record as a human-pathogenic bacterium. However, several strains of this species exhibit interesting potential to be used as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of B. cereus strain CITVM-11.1, which consists of 37 contig sequences, accounting for 5,746,486 bp (with a GC content of 34.8%) and 5,752 predicted protein-coding sequences. Several of them could potentially be involved in plant-bacterium interactions and may contribute to the strong antagonistic activity shown by this strain against the charcoal root rot fungus, Macrophomina phaseolina. This genomic sequence also showed a number of genes that may confer this strain resistance against several polluting heavy metals and for the bioconversion of mycotoxins.
蜡样芽孢杆菌是一种革兰氏阳性、形成芽孢的细菌，作为一种人类病原菌有着重要且悠久的记录。然而，该物种的几个菌株展现出用作植物促生根际细菌的有趣潜力。在此，我们报告蜡样芽孢杆菌CITVM - 11.1菌株的基因组草图序列，其由37个重叠群序列组成，总计5,746,486 bp（GC含量为34.8%），含有5,752个预测的蛋白质编码序列。其中一些序列可能潜在地参与植物与细菌的相互作用，并可能促成该菌株对炭根腐病菌菜豆壳球孢菌所表现出的强烈拮抗活性。该基因组序列还显示出许多可能赋予该菌株对几种污染重金属的抗性以及对霉菌毒素进行生物转化的基因。
