...For Bacillus sp. BHET2, the genome annotations by Prokka and BlastKOALA (Blast, Basic Local Alignment Search Tool; KEGG, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes; KOALA, KEGG Orthology And Links Annotation) [52] as well as subsequent local BLAST searches with known terephthalic acid and protocatechuate degradation proteins did not reveal any proteins with significant homology....

...For local Blast searches, all matches with above 90% identity were initially kept and these were then further filtered to keep only those with above 95, 97 or 99% identity, depending on the comparison being made....

...Global distribution of our isolates in marine plastispheres and planktonic samples In order to determine the distribution of the two isolates, several searches were carried out: (i) local Blast [101] searches using the 16S rRNA gene of each isolate against the community succession amplicon sequencing data; (ii) local Blast searches using the 16S rRNA gene of each isolate against the 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing data from all marine plastisphere samples included in our recent plastisphere meta-analysis [33], i.e. 124,319 ASVs in 1185 samples; (iii) local Blast searches using the 16S rRNA gene of each isolate against 16S rRNA fragments from the Tara oceans metagenomes (mitags) [43–45] and (iv) MetaQUAST [102, 103] to determine the coverage for each of the isolates’ genomes within the assembled Tara metagenomes [43–45], downloaded from [104]....
