Isolation of Saccharibacillus WB17 strain from wheat bran phyllosphere and genomic insight into the cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic complex of the Saccharibacillus genus.

ABSTRACT: The microorganisms living on the phyllosphere (the aerial part of the plants) are in contact with the lignocellulosic plant cell wall and might have a lignocellulolytic potential. We isolated a Saccharibacillus strain (Saccharibacillus WB17) from wheat bran phyllosphere and its cellulolytic and hemicellulolytic potential was investigated during growth onto wheat bran. Five other type strains from that genus selected from databases were also cultivated onto wheat bran and glucose. Studying the chemical composition of wheat bran residues by FTIR after growth of the six strains showed an important attack of the stretching C-O vibrations assigned to polysaccharides for all the strains, whereas the C = O bond/esterified carboxyl groups were not impacted. The genomic content of the strains showe
