Transcriptomic analysis of Lysinibacillus varians reveal the genetic foundation of its cell cycle

Lysinibacillus varians GY32 was isolated from river sediment of electronic waste recycling site. Its invariably filament-to-rod cell cycle represents a novel bacteria morphogenesis that is crucial in understanding cell division coordination with lifecycle and environmental bacteria adaptation. A description of genes and biological processes involved in the special filament-to-rod cell cycle of L. varians GY32 is within reach. As a representative of filament cell and rod cell, 5 h and 10 h culture of strain GY32 were used to transcriptome sequencing
