Aside from applications in the production of commercial enzymes and metabolites,Bacillus amyloliquefaciensis also an important group of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria that supports plant growth and suppresses phytopathogens. A host-genotype-independent counter-selectable marker would enable rapid genetic manipulation and metabolic engineering, accelerating the study ofB. amyloliquefaciensand its development as both a microbial cell factory and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria. Here, a host-genotype-independent counter-selectable markerpheS*was constructed through a point mutation of the genepheS, which encodes theα-subunit of phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase inBacillus subtilisstrain 168. In the presence of 5 mMp-chloro-phenylalanine, 100 % ofB. amyloliquefaciensstrain SQR9 cells carryingpheS*were killed, whereas the wild-type strain SQR9 showed resistance top-chloro-phenylalanine. A simplepheS*and overlap-PCR-based strategy was developed to create the marker-free deletion of theamyEgene as well as a 37-kbbmycluster inB. amyloliquefaciensSQR9. The effectiveness ofpheS*as a counter-selectable marker inB. amyloliquefacienswas further confirmed through the deletion ofamyEgenes in strainsB. amyloliquefaciensFZB42 and NJN-6. In addition, the potential use ofpheS*in otherBacillusspecies was preliminarily assessed. The expression of PheS*inB. subtilisstrain 168 andB. cereusstrain ATCC 14579 caused pronounced sensitivity of both hosts top-chloro-phenylalanine, indicating thatpheS*could be used as a counter-selectable marker (CSM) in these strains.
