Whole Genome Analysis of Chromium-Resistant Bacteria with Plant Growth-Promoting characteristics. Bacillus subtilis strain:K42

The primary objective is to identify and characterize genes involved in chromium resistance, with a specific focus on chromate transporters and chromium reduction mechanisms. Additionally, the study seeks to uncover genetic factors contributing to plant growth promotion. By integrating these findings, the project aspires to deepen our understanding of the genetic basis underpinning chromium resistance and plant growth facilitation in these beneficial bacterial strains.
