Abstract

We report the complete genome sequence of Bacillus subtilis subsp. natto NARUSE, which has been traditionally employed for fermenting soybeans in Japan. The genome was sequenced using the PacBio system, yielding a sequence, yielding a sequence length of 4,148,793 nucleotides for the circular chromosome and 62,770 nucleotides for the plasmid.

Keywords: Bacillus subtilis; PacBio; genome; natto.
