Bacillus subtilis C3, a commercial textile dye-decolorizing and -degrading bacterium, was isolated from the common effluent treatment plant (CEPT) of the Jetpur textile dyeing and printing industrial sector situated in the district of Rajkot, Gujarat, India. Here, we present the annotated 4.18-Mb draft genome sequence of B. subtilis C3, providing information about the metabolic pathways involved in decolorization and degradation of several commercial textile azo dyes. Thus, we confirm B. subtilis C3 as a potential candidate for bioremediation of textile effluents.

“…Phosphorus, an essential nutrient for plant growth, is often limited in soil due to low solubility, especially in alkaline and acidic soils [7]. To address this limitation, we investigated the phosphate solubilizing potential and acid-alkaline phosphatase activity of two multitrait heavy metal-tolerant PSB strains isolated from agricultural soils of Northern Gujarat, India [8]. These strains exhibit the ability to tolerate heavy metal contamination and the capacity to solubilize phosphates, making them potential candidates for biofertilizer production and environmental remediation [9,10].…”

A study was conducted to isolate and characterize phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) from soils of various locations in North Gujarat. A total of 40 PSB isolates were obtained, exhibiting a phosphate solubilizing index (PSI) ranging from 2.11 to 4.33. Interestingly, among 40 PSB isolates, a subset of 16 displayed an additional trait of potassium solubilization, as evidenced by their potassium solubilizing index (KSI) values falling within the range of 2.10 to 3.10. These 16 PSB isolates were screened for tolerance to heavy metal stressors, namely CdCl2, HgCl2, Pb(NO3)2, and ZnSO4, spanning a concentration gradient from 0.1 mM to 10 mM. Remarkably, among the tested isolates, two, namely, D4 and G2, exhibited exceptional resilience against the heavy metal stressors, as indicated by their minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Specifically, isolate D4 showed MIC values of 5 mM, 0.2 mM, 18 mM, and 12 mM, respectively, against CdCl2, HgCl2, Pb(NO3)2, and ZnSO4. For isolate G2, the corresponding MIC values were 6 mM, 0.2 mM, 21 mM, and 11 mM. The bacterial isolates were molecularly identified as strains Klebsiella pneumoniae PHmD4 (abbreviated as D4) and Enterobacter chuandaensis PHmG2 (abbreviated as G2), based on sequence homology obtained from 16S rDNA gene sequencing and subsequent BLAST analysis. In Pikovskaya’s broth, K. pneumoniae PHmD4 and E. chuandaensis PHmG2 had phosphate solubilization values of 4.30 μ moles mL⁻¹ and 3.51 μmoles mL⁻¹, respectively, with terminal pH values of 3.06 and 4.07. Enzymatic activity assays conducted after 96 hours of incubation in Pikovskaya’s broth revealed that the highest acid phosphatase activity was 21.62 U mL⁻¹ for K. pneumoniae PHmD4 and 21.09 U mL⁻¹ for E. chuandaensis PHmG2. The highest alkaline phosphatase activity was 5.85 U mL⁻¹ and 6.38 U mL⁻¹, respectively. In the tomato seed germination study, both non-bacterized and bacterized tomato seeds achieved a 100% germination rate. However, increasing metal concentrations diminished the germination percentage of heavy metal-treated seeds. Interestingly, bacterization with K. pneumoniae PHmD4 and E. chuandaensis PHmG2 ameliorated germination under cadmium stress but had no mitigative effect under mercury and zinc stress conditions.

Global industrialization is a major cause of effluent discharge from industries up to alarming concentrations. Especially, uranium concentrations in water bodies are of great concern, as its radioactivity significantly affects the persistent diversity of microbiota. Recently, continuous application of pesticides in the agricultural lands and accumulation of quartz that enter the Cauvery River has significantly increased the concentration of uranium (U) and other heavy metals. To perceive the impact of uranium on bacterial diversity in Cauvery River, sediment samples collected from polluted (UP) site with 32.4 Bq/K of U concentration and control (UNP) site were scrutinized for bacterial diversity through metagenomic analysis of the V3 region of 16S rDNA by Illumina sequencing. Taxonomic assignment revealed that the unpolluted sample was dominated by Bacteroidetes (27.7 %), and Firmicutes (25.9 %), while sediment sample from the highly polluted site revealed abundance of Proteobacteria (47.5 %) followed by Bacteroidetes (22.4 %) and Firmicutes (14.6 %). Among Proteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria was the most prevalent group followed by alpha, delta, epsilon, and beta in the uranium-polluted sample. Rare and abundant species analysis revealed that species like Idiomarina loihiensis was abundant in the pollutant sample; however, it was rare (<0.1 %) in the sample from pristine environment. Similarly, the species distribution in both the samples varied, with the bacteria potentially active in redox activity and biosorption potential dominating in the polluted sample. Outcomes of the present study demonstrated the impact of uranium and metal accumulation on the bacterial communities and further confirmed the promising candidature of specific bacterial species as bioindicators of contamination.
