This study showcases 121 new genomes of spore-forming Bacillales from strains collected globally from a variety of habitats, assembled using Oxford Nanopore long-read and MGI short-read sequences. Bacilli are renowned for their capacity to produce diverse secondary metabolites with use in agriculture, biotechnology, and medicine. These secondary metabolites are encoded within biosynthetic gene clusters (smBGCs). smBGCs have significant research interest due to their potential for the discovery of new bioactivate compounds. Our dataset includes 62 complete genomes, 2 at chromosome level, and 57 at contig level, covering a genomic size range from 3.50 Mb to 7.15 Mb. Phylotaxonomic analysis revealed that these genomes span 16 genera, with 69 of them belonging to Bacillus. A total of 1,176 predicted BGCs were identified by in silico genome mining. We anticipate that the open-access data presented here will expand the reported genomic information of spore-forming Bacillales and facilitate a deeper understanding of the genetic basis of Bacillales potential for secondary metabolite production.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
