Complete genome sequence of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum CC178, a phyllosphere bacterium antagonistic to plant pathogenic fungi

Abstract

Bacillus amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum strain CC178 is a phyllosphere bacterium with antagonistic activity against a wide range of plant fungal pathogens. The genome of strain CC178 is 3,916,828 bp in size and harbors 3,972 genes. Six giant gene clusters are dedicated to the nonribosomal synthesis of antimicrobial polypeptides and polyketides.
