Genomic basis and functional characterization of the exopolysaccharide production by a thermotolerant Bacillus isolated from Tolhuaca hot spring

Bacillus licheniformis Tol1, a thermotolerant bacterial strain isolated from the Tolhuaca hot spring in Chile, was investigated for its genomic features and the functional properties of its exopolysaccharide (EPS). The whole-genome sequencing revealed ∼4.25 Mbp genome with a GC content of 45.9% and...
