Draft genome sequence of Bacillus cereus HS120, a probiotic candidate isolated from the gut of hilsa ( Tenualosa ilisha )
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: ABSTRACT Bacillus cereus HS120 was isolated from the stomach of a healthy hilsa ( Tenualosa ilisha ) in Nabogonga River, Bangladesh. Here, we present a 5,673,590-bp draft genome with 35.23 % GC content, which encodes numerous biosynthetic gene clusters for secondary metabolites and lacks detectable virulence factors, supporting its potential as an aquaculture probiotic.
