“…The fact that microbial species present in activated sludge are usually adapted to degrade toxic contaminants highlights the persistence of ILs (Gutierrez et al, 2002;Chong, 2005). Pham et al (2009) Sendovski et al (2010) Despite the nature of the biodegradation products was not determined, to the best of our knowledge this is the first report on IL biodegradation by fungi.…”

“…Degradation of a POP, BTEX similarly, is achieved by microbial members that are capable (degraders) among the populations (Chong 2005). Degraders can evolve or increase after the lag phase, through which indigenous microorganisms (Buitron et al 1998;Chong 2005).…”

Degradation of benzene, toluene, and ethylbenzene (BTE) by microbial populations indigenous to the soil and populations proliferated from the indigenous using biogenic substrates were compared. The reaction system consisted of aerobic microcosms representing an unsaturated soil. Microcosms supplemented with glucose and citrate, when compared to the unsupplemented microcosms, showed increases in bacterial counts, but the overall degradation rates for B, T, or E were reduced in spite of shorter lag times. Both biogenic substrate supplements were non-beneficial for BTE degradation due largely to the preferential and healthy growth of the indigenous populations on the biogenic substrates, and thus the urgency of developing a favorable amount of BTE degraders was reduced.

“…To reveal novel genes from Bacillus species, some bacterial strains were isolated by mixing 1 g of soil with 9 ml of NaCl 0.8% and incubating at 30ºC for 1 h. The solution was decanted, and 1 ml of the supernatant was spread on MEMB agar plates [1,2] and incubated at 30ºC for 4 days under aerobic conditions. One of the colonies recovered was named AN2, and its genome was sequenced.…”

Aims: This research aims to report the genome sequence of the Bacillus sp. strain AN2, isolated from agricultural soil from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Place and Duration of Study: Laboratory of Environmental Biotechnology, Western Rio Janeiro State University in Brazil, between January 2019 and December 2019. Methodology: High-quality genomic DNA was extracted using a GenElute Bacterial Genomic DNA kit. The Nextera XT DNA Library Prep Kit was used for genomic library construction. Paired-end sequence reads were generated by an Illumina MiSeq instrument with the 600 cycles MiSeq Reagent Kit v3. Sequence data were assembled with A5-MiSeq pipeline software and the contigs were annotated by Rapid Annotation using Subsystems Technology (RAST). Results: The obtained genome sequence of Bacillus AN2 included 21 contigs with a calculated size of 3,681,081 bp in length. The G + C content for the draft genome is 41.4%. A total of 3824 coding sequences (CDS) were predicted and encoded at least 88 tRNAs.
