Abstract

This study reports the draft genome sequence of a promising fish probiotic, Bacillus subtilis strain WS1A, that possesses antimicrobial activity against Aeromonas veronii and suppressed motile Aeromonas septicemia in Labeo rohita . The de novo assembly resulted in an estimated chromosome size of 4,148,460 bp, with 4,288 open reading frames.
