Functional genome of representative heavy metal-resistant strains from Casuarina roots
These are B. thuringiensis LB-HR1-3, B. toyonensis LB-HR1-4, B. cereus LB-HR1-11, and B. cereus LB-HR1-15, all isolated from the roots of Casuarina in the highly polluted area of the Hainan Changhua lead-zinc mine. After activating the strains in LB liquid medium, total DNA was extracted using a bacterial genomic DNA extraction kit (Tiangen Biochemical Technology (Beijing) Co., Ltd.). Whole-genome sequencing was performed on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform, using a PE150 paired-end strategy with an insert size of about 350 bp. The sequencing was done by Shanghai Meiji Biopharmaceutical Technology Co., Ltd.
