Phylogenetic analysis. a The 16S rRNA gene-based phylogenetic tree showing the position of P. yanchengensis Y32^T. b The NJ phylogenetic tree of P. yanchengensis Y32^T relative to 16 genome-sequenced strains from the Bacillaceae family was built based on the core protein sequences. All genome FASTA files were downloaded from NCBI except for the Pontibacillus genus. A total of 602 conserved proteins were identified using the cluster algorithm tool OrthoMCL [16, 17]. The phylogenetic trees were constructed using the neighbor-joining method by MEGA 6.0 software [15] with a bootstrap value of 1,000
