Abstract：Bacillus is a kind of valuable biological resource .In this study ,the species and genetic diversity of bacillus was investigated in agricultural soils in Henan province based on the phyloge-netic analysis of 16S rRNA gene .Total 331 strains were isolated and belonged to 19 species of Ba-cillaceae ,in which one was a candidate novel Bacillus species .The species Bacillus megaterium , Bacillus simplex ,Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus mycoides were predominant in Henan province and represented 37% ,22% ,15% and 12% of total strains ,respectively .For different regions in the province ,they had some difference in the predominant species ,and harbored some particular species for themselves .In summary ,the present study proves that Henan province has rich baci-llus resources .
