Abstract

Bacillus pumilus GLB197 isolated from grape leaves exhibited strong inhibitory activity against grape downy mildew. The whole genome of the strain was sequenced to gain new insights into its molecular mechanism underlying the biocontrol on phytopathogens. The complete genome contains one chromosome (3,733,835 bp) and one plasmid (7061 bp). Several gene clusters related to biosynthesis of antimicrobial compounds were predicted. The genome provides insights into the possible biocontrol mechanisms and further application of this specific bacterium.
