Abstract

We present the genomic sequences of 10 spore-forming bacteria from the Bacillaceae family isolated from fecal samples of mice residing in the Tisch Family Biblical Zoo, Jerusalem. These isolates suggest Bacillus bacteria are a native component of rodent gut flora, facilitating further research into gut colonization and microbiome diversity.
